Puhlease - they've kept Shira as long as they have and she's done more damage to that company so far than DoFu has. As long as his paycheck doesn't bounce, he'll stay.

Classic comment from Urbi to a poster who said they were leaving:

"Once again, we note that your threats are hollow and you come across like a sad, lonely blowhard.

I doubt anyone here gives a shit about you.  We pretty much all know that you are a vile and unethical parasite of a human being with an abnormal craving for attention."

Point taken,but Shira has never been this honest.

I'll take honest and burdened by circumstance over dishonest and/or burdensome, anytime.

As a purely speculative guess, I would say Fuller will eventually quit (for better opportunities).  I don't see him as a job hopper.  He seems intelligent.  I *think* he is making progress.  But anyone here is welcome to prove me wrong.  For his profession, the mess he is digging into must be nothing less than fascinating.  I say more than 9 months since I think prosper will last at least a year.

Honestly,working at prosper must suck.

I don't see an IPO coming,i don't see future profits coming now.All i see is a job where everyone is raping the company for big salaries till something better comes along or the Venture Capital runs out.

Well they need to really quadrupedal their loan origination to get to brake even state (right?).  And for that to happen, requires a combination or advertising & low interest rates (& for the interest rates to be low, defaults have to be low or at least the lenders need to be misled about the default rate).
