Two reasons why startups amass huge numbers of people: 1. CEO is a shithead who doesn’t know what to do, so hiring is a futile attempt to do everything at once

Two reasons why startups amass huge numbers of people:
1. CEO is a shithead who doesn’t know what to do, so hiring is a futile attempt to do everything at once
2. Huge number of employees looks better when coming up with valuation for a round.
The two tend to be self reinforcing. And #1 survives and blossoms after IPO.
