I think our "coinhustler" Christian badly misrepresented what went on in the meeting.
Also I wouldn't trust the opinions of a person who's obviously to immature to host a meeting. ( just watch what he types in the chat window, even though he deletes most of what he types, it's a nice window into his thought process. )
It speaks louder than the personal attacks he's bound to launch at me now
--- but enough about him.
I urge everyone to watch for themselves.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLrvV2YKbZg&feature=youtu.beIt's very enlightening. The tone of the conversation is very telling. Make a strong cup of coffee, and play parts of it at 1.5x speed.
I find it very hard to listen to the condescending tone of Greg, how he keeps interrupting Dor, looks down on the other coders and tells others to shut up.
"I've heard you point and I appreciate it, thank you very much " <- that's Gregs ways of saying shut the fuck up. It's very disingenuous.
He says he doesn't want control, and a few minutes later he says how "He won't allow Dor to be CEO".
Dor barely got a sentence out in those hours without Greg interrupting him. "that's false, that's false, that's false." Reminded me of Trump who calls everyone #liars, without actually refuting the claims. Maybe he can send out some daily tweets with the hashtag #LyingDor
It's obviously not false that Greg has failed to deliver so far and is now asking for more time and more money.
I think Greg tries hard to present a face of a friendly person who respects everyone, but that facade is showing a LOT of cracks.
He's trying to hold Synereo hostage now, but he doesn't realise there are other options. Greg has less power than he thinks. A manipulative loudmouth with a HUGE ego.
What he is really really hurting is AMP price with his public outburst and vilifying of Dor. Another proof that what he says doesn't match with what he does.
Making other people look bad to make yourself look like the better is , sadly, quite effective ( Trump again )
For the record ; I do NOT think Dor has "alienated everybody" like Greg claims. I still believe Dor is an excellent CEO and has massively over delivered on important CEO tasks like raising funds and forming partnerships.
Anderson McCutcheon ( whom i greatly respect for his ability to provide helicopter view ) appears to agree with that sentiment.
Dor can be hard to get in touch with because he has WAY to much on his plate. That will hopefully be remedied soon, when more people are hired.
Also I 'd like to express my support to Dor and my admiration on how he can take so much flack and continue to calmly make his point, and not stoop to Greg's level.

And not that my opinion on this carries a lot of weight, but I think that simply switching Synereo to a whole different stack is the best option. We're not losing much, since its in super pre alpha stages anyway.
From here on there's more room to grow then ever. Prune away the unhealthy bits, hire more people and watch Synereo soar.
