Conversely: "Slow to hire, fast to fire" is something I've heard a few times in my career, and usually within organizations that turned out to be truly toxic and absolutely burnout inducing places to work.
Operating on either extreme probably makes for captivating blog posts and "leadership reading material" but in praxis seems like it should be self-evidently a bad idea.

Headlines are sometimes wrong :)
Boggles my mind how companies flip on a dime between "hire as fast as possible" and "the sky is falling, we're laying people off." In the case of Bolt and Twitter, there were material changes (lawsuit from major customer, Elon Musk) but the others are just scared about the economy.
