I guess I&#x27;m making a clear distinction between &quot;startup&quot; (ie. no clear business model or path to profitability yet) vs. &quot;established tech giant.&quot;<p>The latter has such massive hiring needs in comparison that even if funding dried up (which they do not need since they have lots of profit and are already oftentimes publicly traded), I don&#x27;t think it would slow down the market THAT much.
