I've been at companies that could hustle, and hustled. I'm not sure it's valuable. In one case, our hustle was a waste, as a dependency was late. In another, our hustle was a success, and we launched to the world.
In both cases, me and colleagues made the same amount of money, experienced a degree of burnout, and if anything taught the company they can do it again if they want. Hustling at a sustainable pace? Sure. Sprinting, like death marches, just burns employees.
I would resist commenting, but I know those Tesla employees won't be getting a huge bonus or extra time off. I wonder how well it will go for them the next time.
