Obviously this will very wildly, but it seems like something has changed in this landscape over the last 5-10 years. It used to be common knowledge that founders/founding engineers would take a measly salary in exchange for significant equity.
But some recent anecdata has me questioning if this is true anymore (seeing $200k+ salary plus equity in some cases).
So, anybody have any insight? What's the market like for experienced founding/early engineers right now?
