Is that really true though? I would tend to think a transactional employee would be the first to think "I don't make enough to deal with this bullshit" in the face of drama/downturns in a start-up. If it's just a "time for money" trade, after all, then there's no reason to not just jump ship when the going gets tough. My intention isn't to shame this attitude, by the way, I generally hold similar attitudes and start (casually) looking for new employment if things get too spicy at my place of work.

There are a lot of factors for sure but I think transactional employees would be less impacted by the bullshit because they are less exposed to it due to their not socializing as much during or after working hours. Depending on experience, I would also expect them to be better at identifying potential bullshit and to be motivated to resolve uncertainty and ambiguity earlier in a process so that they can avoid working unnecessarily long hours.
