It's far from a secret. Lack of discussions means the compensation package isn't negotiated first.

Half our team has kids, and most of our team comes from a variety of countries half way around the world. 99% of candidates don't even get into the salary discussion phase. It's ha…

This conversation is about early stage start ups. That's pre-series A. Post-series-A salaries do go back to market rate. If the start up you worked at was sold for 500Mil while on …

That's where the options vs RSUS comes in. There's a high chance of RSU at early stage start ups

And definitely agree with experience and knowledge that benefits a career for the future.

I agree that the risk is high and isn't for everyone.

I was approximating of course. Yet the $50x20 is a $100 million valuation, not $1 billion ($1 million is 1% of $100 million, not $1,000 million). This isn't that unheard of.
