Absolutely not. After 30 years in business I have seen too many execs walk away with huge (>50+ million dollar pay packages, upwards of 250 million due to pre-arranged exit deals) even after failing greatly and seriously harming franchises if not permanently destroying them. And when times get tough, the C-suite uses their management consultants as cover to whack a ton of ordinary folks because "you know, overlaps". Think like a mercenary at all times. They do. Don't get me started on gentleman agreements about bonuses to be paid after 12 months "if" I came onboard.
