From the research
4 themesYou're paid top of market, but 60-hour weeks are the baseline and the pressure to ship is relentless.
It's innovate or die—if you aren't using AI to automate your workflows, leadership has made it clear you won't survive here.
The 'hire and fire' dynamic in sales is brutal; if you don't hit your steep quotas quickly, you're out.
