The Twenty Minute VC (20VC): Venture Capital | Startup Funding | The Pitch · 20Sales: The $100M CRO Bubble: Why Anthropic Are Causing a Comp Crisis | Why You Should Never Hire From Salesforce or Service Now | How to Hire, Train and Forecase in a World of AI with Chad Peets and Chris Degnan · 23 May 2026 podcast

Why should they?

Yeah, I think you can make that argument.

It's harder to make as they offer more and more money.

So the pitch that we're both making right now about come here, especially for development, is harder today than it's ever been.

10 years ago, I would sell on coming to work for a John McMahon company because we're going to train you and we're going to do this and we're going to do that.

That pitch is harder to land today because they're like, yeah, I hear all that, but I can go to Anthropic and make five times as much money.

And it's expensive.

That's the other thing too.

First of all, we're expensive.

So the first conversation is, wait, you guys want what?

That's the first challenge that we face.

We're capitalists.

We're performance-based.

Yes, we are performance-based, but we are not cheap.

How do you structure how you work with companies?

We get equity.

I mean, there's cash that covers just the expenses of the recruiting because the guys on the recruiting team are the best recruiters in the world, bar none, but they're not cheap.

So we have to collect cash to cover their expenses.

The way we make our money is we get an equity grant tied to four years.

And they say the same thing to everybody.
