AI Insights:
Cruise went from moonshot startup to cautionary tale faster than one of their cars could navigate a San Francisco intersection. Smart engineers, terrible leadership, and a cover-up that torched the brand - all under the watchful eye of a legacy automaker that moves at the speed of a traffic jam. The comp was great right up until it wasn't, and now everyone's just waiting for their severance check.
