Just to add, you can't increase it that fast either.

If you double the number of employees of some place in a year, you have a really large risk of completely redefining its entire culture. And a software business has basically 2 things, a culture and locked-in people.

Lots of places reported people having nothing to do, don't know what to do and lacked direction. The hiring standards also went down.

When you double in a year, especially in the great resignation, 75% of your company will be new hires at the end of the year.

If you didn't follow conventions, your onboarding wasn't great or reinforced, then very few things in your system will be consistent.
