When OKRs were first used at Google it already had tens of thousands of employees. Why would any startup use a tool created by a big org and designed for a big org? Should we give infants medicines that were created for adults?
Startups need to stop copying BigTech because they're not like BigTech.

Intel was huge when they started OKRs, but Google wasn't, in 2000. https://rework.withgoogle.com/guides/set-goals-with-okrs/steps/learn-the-abridged-history-of-OKRs/ https://rework.withgoogle.com/guides/set-goals-with-okrs/ste...
