> I’ve joined the Wasmer company at its early beginning, in March 2019. The company was 3 months old.

I had no idea that Wasmer, Inc. was a company. The home page, wasmer.io, says nothing about a company and reads like an open source project landing page.

Way at the bottom is a banana button to "Contact Sales" that's just an email address.

What's the product Wasmer is selling?

Clicking through to "about," I see nothing about products, just bios of the team members:

I suspect that pressure had to do with not having a product for sale in the traditional sense. Maybe the company was viewed as a product, with another company as the customer. If so, it's clear how this could become a pressure cooker.

No product + investor money + team to support = pressure and bad work environment.
