Company culture mirrors its founder’s psychology. First touchpoints with Anthropic, Manus, xAI, and Google were curious, accountable, and collaborative. The teams treat the problem as a shared one. First touchpoints with OpenAI were evasive, disinterested, “we don’t know, we don’t care.” That is not a support bottleneck. It is the trickle-down reality of Sam Altman’s leadership ethos. When executive leadership prioritizes narrative maneuvering over genuine accountability, the organization learns to treat builders as an inconvenience. The fish rots from the head down. Arrogance at the apex always breeds apathy at the edges.
