Nice guy, little bit weird interaction overall; pushy emails, some surprise additions to our call, and then sudden loss of interest. I think the fund has some smart guys but maybe they haven't dialed in their processes yet.

We met Satya during YC and he was always very respectful and communicative. He is extremely forthright, patient and truly invests for the long haul. This is the type of partner you want on your cap table who also attracts other great investors to get involved in later rounds.

Alfred was a bit of a case of "don't meet your heroes" for us. He has such a great reputation and track record but meeting him was underwhelming. It didn't feel like he made an effort to understand our business and as a result his questions were a bit irrelevant. I want to send Alfred on an Eat Pray Love journey to rediscover himself as a VC because he just seems bored/jaded. I almost felt bad for him because he seems so over it. "It" being investing in startups and meeting founders who are putting everything out there and giving their all. It's tough to give 110% when the VC gives you 10%.

He reached out to us with interest and we set-up a meeting as we were just opening a round. Meeting was good - smart guy and very courteous. After internal review he came back with extensive feedback and (as we already anticipated as well), we were too early and will keep in touch. Overall pleasant experience, feedback quality was better than your average VC - he clearly put in an effort.

I spoke with Steve on a few different occasions and found him to be very thoughtful, direct and constructive with his feedback. Steve was also extremely quick with responding and keeping in touch in regards to what he was actually doing and his expected timelines to get me a decision. He stuck to those and was honest from the beginning to end. While he didn't invest, I appreciate spending time with a potential investor such as this and believe it when he offered to help in any other capacity.

Mar is amazingly supportive of early stage founders, even those she does not invest in and especially student founders. Her feedback is always spot-on and valuable. She is also a warm and welcoming person, which is often lacking in the VC world. If you are fortunate enough to get money from Pear, you can expect an incredible amount of support and a great community.

He's kind of the type of investor who gives you a lot of capital at horrendous terms but then is extremely hands off unless you're his star portfolio co's. Would not work with again, and very predatory terms. Demands board seats and liquidation preferences due to power.
