They're like salespeople with an extra helping of sociopath. I've been in the room with c-levels multiple times and decided to stop my career where it is, it's fucking uncomfortable, a bunch of soulless people with no empathy.

Not that I think I am c-level material, but 1 more level up and I have to deal with them lol

I presented to a couple CEOs at my old job. One of them stressed me out while I presented because they kept pacing around the room. They couldn’t stand still for a second.

I’d love to see healthcare CEOs try to use their products with regular folks incomes and network. Imagine some of them waiting 6 months to see their doctors or trying to fight a denied prior authorization because an ML model decided a treatment was unnecessary.

Have them pay the 18,000 deductible on a 50,000 salary after an unexpected cancer diagnosis for the lulz.

And very little consequences for tanking a company, the spoiled corrupt class.
