Anthropic early investor reveals: morale hits an all-time low, CEO Dario blinded by money and disconnected from reality According to a tweet by Brian Roemmele, after speaking with an early investor of Anthropic, he disclosed that the internal situation at the company is worse than expected. Investor and employee morale is at a historic low, with anger steadily rising, and the PhD-led leadership team has become isolated. The investor stated that younger employees, after growing out of the company’s early 'cult-like' culture, have teamed up with new hires to create secret communication channels to vent their dissatisfaction with management. Many employees are caught in a dilemma: losing equity or leaving an environment harmful to their mental health. Roemmele commented: 'I believe Dario has good intentions, but money has isolated him from anyone who could reach him. This is one of the top AI companies, and they are falling apart.' The investor admitted, 'Your initial judgment that the philosophy these people held would lead to their downfall was correct.'
