Companies hired because other companies were hiring.
If you're big, you would have to explain to shareholders and the board why Google and Facebook are doubling/tripling in size, but you're not - is it because the company is moribund? SELL SELL SELL!
If you're small, you would have to explain to investors and the board why other startups/unicorn wannabes are doubling/tripling in size, but you're not - is it because the company is moribund? SELL SELL SELL!
Here is my company leadership heuristic: what option requires the least discussion/interaction/explanation with the board? That's the one that will be chosen.
