Hi guys.

A startup is building a tech solution for brands in the advertising space.

They are in need of additional hands (cloud engineer, app developer,web developer etc).

If you are interested in the project, kindly drop your WhatsApp number.

Please note that this is not a paid gig. But volunteers have the opportunity to have 1% to 2% equity stake in the project.

Nairaland, eh? Only on that platform you'll see the kind of rubbish they're trying to sell. 'Build solutions for free, get 1% equity?' Are these people mad? Do they think developers are doing 'Father Christmas' work? 1%? You're basically asking someone to build your entire company for the price of 'akara' and pure water.

See, if we allow this kind of foolishness to continue, what hope is there for the next generation of developers? What are we teaching them? That their skills are worthless? That they should work for scraps? These people don't even know what it takes to write a single line of clean code, yet they're offering 'equity' like it's gala and minerals.

And don't even get me started on these 'script kiddies' and 'half-baked' programmers. We're talking about seasoned developers here, people who have put in the work, who have honed their skills. Real professionals. Not these 'copy and paste' developers who think they're geniuses because they can install WordPress.

The saddest part? You'll still find some 'backward' developers who will jump at this 'opportunity.' They'll be so desperate for a 'chance' that they'll sell themselves for nothing. They'll be the ones complaining later that the industry is 'spoiled.' No, you spoiled it yourself!

To all the real developers out there, the ones who know their worth: use your head! You can't be a top-tier web and software developer and be struggling to eat. If you're living hand-to-mouth, it means you're being played. And these 'equity' offers? That's the ultimate play.

These companies? They want 'value,' of course. They want you to build them a goldmine for free. They want you to pour your sweat and tears into their project, and then give you a tiny slice of the pie. It's daylight robbery!

Any developer who falls for this 'opportunity' is basically signing a contract with poverty. And I'm saying it loud and clear: any software that comes from this kind of arrangement is cursed! It's built on exploitation, and it will bring nothing but bad luck. They are looking for free workers. Period!

I don't suppose to reply to you.

But whatever you believe, keep at it.

Truth is the reason you’re a team of 5 is because y’all are not good enough and that’s what you get when you expect free web development. Even if you’ve got the best intention 1 solid well paid developer would deliver better and faster than 5 average well paid developers. If you’re serious you should post more info on the project and kill the idea of free web development.

Your problem is like the problem of an average Nigerian.

They think they know when they know nothing.

We are talking about people that have an average of 8 years in different specialization. Some of my team members are foreign schooled tech person.

We are not building your usual HTML/JavaScript project. Just enjoy your energy. I don't want it around me.

Ahh dude I’m actually North American educated 😅.
You see how no one responded to your original post ?
An average Nigerian would ignore your hot pile of shit coz they’ve seen plenty of it or they would call it out for the rubbish it is like Shedrick did .. but I was giving you the initial benefit of the doubt and that’s why I advised you but since you want to double down on your ignorance .. Go for it man. You have a specialized team of 5 mid to senior people and you’re still looking for volunteer developers kmt 😂😂

No one should take this funny offer. If you don't have money don't start a startup

Even if it's 50% equity I won't take this shit, if it's a serious thing you should fund the project or pitch the idea for funding, please nobody should answer this idiot

M0r0n, so someone who has worked so hard to gain knowledge will work with you because of your stupid equity or whatever. Take that equity and shove it up gaddamn ass

1% and 2% equity is hilarious and slavery. People are really desperate to get jobs sha🥺

With due respect, you are mad sha, like obliwhisky kinda mad, baba werey. 1-2% equity. You are not just mad, you are cruel, wicked, heartless, and totally a bad fellow. Associating with you is like toying with venomous snake.

If not that you are the maddest person ever, 2% for a project still in idea phase. Waka.

Kuku talk voluntary NGO project, i go understand. But for a for profit project, you should jailed for your statements and offers

Idiot 😂

For you guys out there don't let desperation drive you into slavery, I been and past there and I understand that it never ends well. like ever product development is not child play.

For the idiot, I won't reply your wacky come back, because I can already deduce how much of a fool you are.
