Is "Enshittification" inevitable for every public company?

We all know the cycle: A company disrupts the market with a great, cheap product. They IPO. Then, under pressure for quarterly growth, they squeeze the user, cut support, and raise fees to please shareholders.

My question to the sub: Can you name a company that scaled to the Fortune 500 while actually improving its core user experience?

Or is product degradation simply a required feature of late-stage scaling?
