A Team of Creators - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso The Future Project

TFP has a great, important mission and they get that the underlying problem for so many of our world's problems is education--the fact that we're not equipping young people with the skills they need to thrive in this day and age. This is a dynamic, energetic workplace where you'll find lots of opportunities to work on new things, lead projects, learn, and grow.

It's still a bit of a startup, and the flip side of their ambitions mission is that they sometimes overcommit or are overambitious. So you have to be ready for a fast-paced, fast-moving, constantly adapting plan.

Can't have an incredible waste of human intelligence without some human intelligence. Opportunity to move on to bigger and better scams, exemplified by the former COO

The entire operation is a massive fugazi funded by Jeff Bezos, among others, and designed to push his agenda at the expense of the poor kids it purports to help. We're straightforwardly some kind of exploratory project designed to see if you can use social-media algorithmic tracking tools on underage children to gather data on them. When we say something like "measuring future potential," it's code for "trying to use models to predict the future behavior of people who are currently children" to track, control, and profit off of people who aren't in social media yet. Of course, our site would never cop to that, because if it did, people would be disgusted—not that anyone who reads our dystopian corporate boilerplate shouldn't be anyway.

In spite of this horrible purpose—no, because of it— the management transcends your typical non-profit narcissism and will defend their reputations to the death. The old COO, who pretentiously styled himself the "Chief Innovation Officer" between stints, was particularly emblematic, hitting on everyone on site to fuel his insatiable need for adulation. I wouldn't get within ten miles of anything these creeps have touched, least of all The Future Company, their next venture. First, poor kids; next, the world
