As an employee (not of Figma I mean of VC backed companies in general) it's also frustrating because you join based on some vision and then you often end up hating the feature throttling for philosophical (empathy with users) or practical reasons (makes it harder to sell or market if that's your job)

Remember when products were getting better over time... now their value starts meh (MVP), becomes great (thanks to funding), and then reverts to meh (when finally focusing on unit economics)
