    I feel this! I’ve been working with American style startups for almost a decade and now recently moved to a Dutch scale-up. They made me take a month long vacation, telling me to do less, delegate more — and now they’re giving me a pretty substantial raise?? My American brain cannot comprehend what’s happening, I feel like I’ve been conditioned to take abuse and I’m having trouble accepting their compassion.
