A VC leads your round, then quietly pushes you out as CEO two years later. Standard cost of doing business, or the ugliest part of venture capital nobody warns founders about?

Options

• Standard cost. You signed the term sheet, that's the deal you made.
• The ugliest part. Founders get sold a dream and rarely told the real risk.
• Depends entirely on whether the founder was actually failing at the job.
• This is exactly why bootstrapping deserves more respect than it gets.
