>The startup is Cognition, an artificial intelligence coding company that bought rival Windsurf in a dramatic July deal. CEO Scott Wu is now offering buyouts to Windsurf’s staffers; if the workers leave, they’ll get nine months of pay on top of their cash from the July deal. Making the offer even more tempting: Wu is explicitly telling his new underlings that if they decline the buyout, life at his company will be a totalizing, unrelenting grind.
