We spoke to 200+ talents at Big tech (FAANMGS) and we were shocked about what we learned. Contrary to what people think; the product engineering folks are not that busy. They basically work about 20hrs a week. Meanwhile, the early-stage fast-growing Startups we are speaking with are desperate to work with Silicon Valley FAANG experts to help them build better, and launch faster.

Are there founders out here who are looking to talk to us?
