How does a vibrant, high energy, engineering-focused startup become a bureaucratic corporate where employees don't feel excited? https://www.haardik.dev/writings/startups-and-corporate-culture

This is inevitable for most VC-backed Silicon Valley companies. VC treadmill requires them to grow at breakneck speeds, which requires hyper specialization, which selects for cog-fit over free thinking. The next-gen org has to look different, which means it must be funded differently.

There's some companies who have managed to maintain good culture regardless. There may be truth in that statement - but need to figure out how to bring that culture back in the hundreds of companies that employ people in the six figures rather than offloading problem to "next gen orgs". There must be a way?

I struggle to see a path forward without at least one other org “showing the way”. There’s no impetus to change until something better is created. Maybe if we have a next-gen org we’ll see trad orgs take some inspiration
