My CTO just left me 2 angry voicemails...
jacquesm: Is your stock solid ? In other words has it vested ?If it is walk. If it isn't you'll have to wonder if they don't fire you whether or not the chances of you sitting it out until your stock does vest are > 50%.It sounds like your CTO is not made of start-up material, and ought to be replaced, but then again we only have your side of the story so that's with the caveat that the other side might have a completely different one.People skills are asset #1 in a start-up and your CTO is displaying none of it or is stressed out to the point of breaking.It definitely sounds like a company with a very sick culture.
