Why Anthropic Are Causing a Comp Crisis & Why You’d Never Hire From Salesforce or ServiceNow
Harry StebbingsChad PeetsChris Degnan
Anthropic is inflating a sales-comp bubble: identical $400K cash OTEs can come with $1.2M in stock versus $600K at a startup, while CRO packages reach $100 million.Peets and Degnan tie the economics to booked contracts, consumption, evidence-based quotas and windfall clauses, but closed public exits and tender offers leave a key risk: whether compensation remains sustainable when burn matters again.
Is a $4.5BN Exit Enough in VC? & Harvey Raises $150M & Why Google is a Buy and Amazon is a Sell
Navan’s roughly 6–7x NTM revenue multiple at about 30% growth signals a tougher SaaS exit market, while Harvey’s $8 billion valuation depends on converting legal labor budgets into software revenue rather than merely expanding software TAM.Longer liquidity timelines, compressed venture ownership, and trillion-dollar OpenAI commitments raise the underwriting bar, while cloud demand remains strong and incumbent software must show AI-driven reacceleration before mature-company multiples or consolidation prevail.
