I know at least some mildly incompetent people that were hired in medium to senior positions at Hashicorp. It's not unique to Hashicorp, but basically by just being in the valley you were immediately guaranteed high paying jobs against much more competent peers. Yes this might be problematic, but a lot of these people should never have been hired in the first place. Unfortunately there is something extremely toxic about VC money(not saying it applies to Hashicorp) which is that growth is defined in headcount.
