I've been having to do stuff "as soon as possible" for over a year now. I'm at a mid sized company and in many ways the nagging to deliver ASAP is beyond even when I founded my own company.
And if something is gonna take a few days or a week, all the managers do is ask me five times if I can instead divide the work and farm it out to other engineers. If it isn't taking on the order of hours, they want to throw people at it to go faster. Parallelism is clearly a manager KPI.
