We looked at tech companies from Funding to Exit:
• 71,000+ respondents
• 187 companies
• 50+ organizational factors
1. What does the data say about commonly held beliefs of tech companies?
2. What are the challenges tech companies face at different stages of VC funding?
3. How do we mitigate the challenges from impacting overall culture?

Simultaneously, early stage companies report the highest satisfaction with their compensation.
Early StageSeries A and Earlier
Total compensation (base salary + any bonuses + benefits+ equity) is fair relative to similar roles at other companies.
Pay is a psychological symbol, and the meaning of money is largely subjective -HBR

Summary • Engagement is tied to the level of self-determination a person feels at their work. As a measure of cultural health, it tends to decrease over time (the Crunch)
• Be aware of your current stage of maturity, and carefully choose your areas of focus
• In times of transition, measure how your employees feel.
• Confidence in leadership and the company can be a stabilizing force
• Through growth, support and foster innovation as you stabilize for IPO
