"What's Startup Life Really Like?" With Wharton MBA Candidate John Pepelnjak (TechKnowledgical: Ep. 3)

Welcome to TechKnowledgical — the podcast where we break down the tech industry — from various technologies & their impacts to different roles like product management, so you can get your dream job in tech.   Every technology company was once a startup. When we were going through the job search in undergrad, us as well as a bunch of classmates kept coming back to ask the same question: "What's it really like at a startup?" In Episode 3, we've got the best person to answer it: John Pepelnjak, MBA candidate at The Wharton School who's worked across the range of startups, like Zuora and Flexport.   If getting into startups now or eventually is something you're interested, tune-in to hear how to evaluate startups to work for, what it's like being employee #7 and working out of an apartment, what to do when a startup goes under, and how different roles work together as the startup grows.   Feel free to send us any feedback, give suggestions for new topics or guests for episodes, or ask questions at [email protected].
