A company with 26 people, each making $120k (pre-tax), or a company with 51 people, each making $60k/yr pre-tax is enough to miss payroll this week if there's only $250k to draw from, and that's not accounting for any other expenses (like, say an AWS/GCP bill, though hopefully you're net-60 with them). CEO/CFO's also now got two weeks to come up with another $250+k in a complex environment.
