Mercor’s Brendan Foody calls out Sequoia over ‘dual-pricing’ valuation tricks

In recent days, founders and founders-turned-investors took to X to share horror stories about being mistreated by VCs. Their complaints ranged from VCs falling asleep during pitch meetings to investors suggesting a founder fire a co-founder.
