Ask HN: Fire your whole team or another chance?

2 pointsby tomkleinover 5 years ago
Hi, imagine you had a team of friends of yours in a startup. It’s getting less productive week after week. Would you fire your whole team after countless tries of getting them to start doing? Is it the fault of yourself hiring them? Would you keep trying?<p>What’s your opinion

Don&#x27;t do business with friends. You will loose both friends and money.

Have a frank discussion about needs, abilities, expectations, and commitment. If this is a business and not a hobby or lark it deserves clarity. Equity is for going the distance not just showing up occasionally.

it&#x27;s everyone&#x27;s fault, but that&#x27;s not the issue here.<p>the real issue is you&#x27;re working with people who you are not satisfied with.<p>in my experience, if you have to motivate people you work with in order to get things done, it&#x27;s already over, because it means the culture is fucked. I&#x27;ve never seen it work. The ideal picture is if you work with people who inspire you every day.<p>Next time try to be careful when looking for who you work with.
