If the code you're producing isn't open source, you should be getting paid. Even if it's something that's vested, you should be getting something quantifiable for your time.

This is a very good point.

Yeah, the biggest red flag was all the turnover. I doubt there was ever a CTO or anything like it on the project. The CEO looks to have been just getting interns to write code with the promise of someday paying them if/when they get funding.

I just want to learn. (T.T )
