Verdict

DANGEROUS

Verdict: Hire is dangerous for a growth team in scarcity conditions.

Copy-ready, shareable verdict.

Why (signals)

  • Base rate: 5.42% is above 5%, so capital is expensive.
  • Curve slope: inverted (-0.35%), signaling caution.
  • Tightness 94 vs risk appetite 26 keeps conditions in scarcity.

Guardrail

New headcount must repay within 90 days through direct revenue or cost savings.

Reversal trigger

Revisit when tightness drops below 70 and risk appetite rises above 50 for 30 consecutive days (current: 94/26).

Assumption locking

Freeze the posture your team is operating under

Lock the posture assumptions to keep debate explicit and prevent silent drift between teams.

Risk posture, threshold tolerance, and stance are stored in the URL.

Use the banner to confirm the lock during reviews.

Operate on the published signals with no bias.

Default tolerance aligned with current thresholds.

Use signal readouts as-is with no narrative overlay.
