Well, when we consider that VC funding is usually trending towards a model of hyper growth, it becomes fairly straightforward to see that the model leans towards throwing people at the problem to make it grow faster. I do think it would be interesting to see a study comparing growth rates of companies comparing to number of employees as (educated guess here) operating with that many employees that quickly is going to result in a number of inefficiencies.

We get middle-heavy startups (backbiting optional) trying to cover zillion dollar AWS bills by perpetually pretending they're on the verge of a Google-up. This is why they need $50MM rather than 1/10th that.
