Karri Saarinen (Linear) — 'It's kind of eye-opening how many great, purpose-driven companies eventually get corrupted'

Karri Saarinen — co-founder & CEO of Linear (the project-management tool used across SV product orgs) — posts a launch-night endorsement on X, tying Incorruptible's diagnosis to Linear's own purpose-driven, control-retained operating posture.

“Haven't finished it yet, but I'm really enjoying 'Incorruptible' by @ericries It's kind of eye-opening how many great, purpose-driven companies eventually get corrupted. Purpose and quality are what drive their success in the beginning, but over time there will be some who see it something to extract value from, which eventually destroys the whole thing.” — Karri Saarinen on X
