1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.

Given their state of affairs, are they planning to bump up their pay this time? Last I check on this platform, it was running at ~20-25% lower than t-1s at all levels. They aspired to be competing with Trilegal at some point. But to draw such talent, is the pay really as competitive?
Also, are the supposed openings actually true or is it just a farce to show they are hiring? What's the work hours like lately especially at mid level? Does the pay differ across teams? Bonus? Want to understand if it's lucrative enough for someone looking for an exit from a well-paying big 6 job to apply here. Could someone with a clearer picture about the place please help? Thank you.
Also, Sandeep, otherwise quite a decent person if you ask anyone at Touchstone, did not have an amicable exit despite being the founding partner. He quit a year ago (https://www.barandbench.com/news/corporate/app-founder-sandeep-das-joins-touchstone-partners) and seems to be doing quite well now.
