Part of the definition of a private company is control over who your stakeholders are. That's what the "public" in "public company" refers to.

I'm at Stripe and my WLB is fine fwiw. It's busy, but my managers and team do not encourage overwork.
It's 5pm Friday here and I'm about to shut down my work laptop until 8am Monday.
I feel like that's not great WLB by today's standards. 8-5 is 9 hours a day (instead of 8), and on a Friday no less, when many folks at other companies easily clock out by 3 to begin their weekend early.
WLB there is atrocious I’ve heard as well. The founders will be extremely rich and they’ll probably start their own space programs. Making already rich people happy is the way to wealth in this country. Hope they are kind enough to throw some table scraps to those who live down below the Ring.
