True. Meanwhile, Sally in IT is still earnestly thinking 10x more than all stakeholders in her meetings combined, and is baffled why the company can't execute, almost as if no one else is actually doing their job.

You and I will receive routine paychecks, bonuses, and promos, but poor Sally's stress from a dysfunctional environment will knock decades off her healthy lifespan.

Before then, if the big-corp has gotten too hopeless, I suppose that the opportunistic thing to do would be to find the Sallys in the company, and co-found a startup with them.
