But yeah the attitude on display here is terrifying to be honest. Honestly this guy needs medication and therapy. There are some deep seated issues here.
But taking it at face value, the real downside of such working conditions for some people wouldn't be the long hours and such, but stress coming exactly from what the conditions do to other people:
* The job description mostly attracts inexperienced bros who don't know how to work smart or well, will perform even worse work with fatigue from the hours, and will soon be enthusiastically hitting 'performance enhancement' drugs, making them even more counterproductive. Also, besides this hurting performance, the drugs will cause personality disorders to emerge, resulting in worse decisions and general unpleasantness, all increasing your stress.
* Any sane colleague who joined (by accident, or desperation) will also be feeling the fatigue and stress, and, no matter how comforting it will be to find a fellow sane person amidst the chaos, they will be getting less sane from the stress, and that will also be adding to your own stress. And whichever of you escapes the company first will be removing the moral support, abandoning the other to the company of increasingly insane fudge-ups.
* Leadership may already be coked up, and it will only get crazier from here. This will increase workplace environment stress, and also likely lead to business crises, for more stress.
* If you decide to overcome the stress by heroically solving some key problem, to get the company on a sane path, the crazy druggie bro fudge-ups will inadvertently sabotage all that effort. More stress.
* Eventually, the stress starts causing physical health problems that are their own sources of stress, but even this is indirectly due to problems created by your incredibly dysfunctional workplace.
Sure, stress can also come from things like legitimate business challenges, but you can rise to those, and fight. What you can't fight is being trapped in an insane asylum. Learn to recognize such places, try not to enter, and run away.
Plus maybe the job post will attract one or two lunatics who are passionate and very hard-working.
They declare their mission: "Make viral content" - and they did.
Their original schtick was charging $10k to get on their waitlist, which clearly failed as now you can “get started for $0” per their website.
Grifter gonna keep grifting
Honestly this seems like the product of a guy on a fast track to a major nervous breakdown.
If you want generational wealth, build your own business without investors.
