Greptile CEO Stirs Debate with 84-Hour Workweek

Daksh Gupta, CEO of San Francisco-based AI startup Greptile, sparked a storm online after sharing details about his company's rigorous work culture. In a candid post aimed at recruiting "like-minded go-getters," Gupta revealed that employees at Greptile are expected to work 84-hour weeks, with little room for work-life balance.

The post went viral, triggering a wave of reactions. Critics accused him of promoting a toxic workplace, with some even sending death threats. Supporters, however, admired his transparency, and others saw it as a challenge, submitting job applications despite the grueling demands.

Gupta defended his stance, stating the culture isn't for everyone but suits those driven to "build something extraordinary." The incident reignited broader debates about work culture in high-growth startups.
