I think your situation differs significantly from the one the author is depicting. You sound like you treat your employees correctly, offering them market rate compensation instead of a carrot on a stick.
- twostorytower 11y agoIt's honestly an engineer's market. Nobody is forcing them to take these below-market jobs for crappy options. If they keep taking them, nothing will change. If you would rather have market salary and little to no equity, most founders are willing to accommodate. But I guarantee that years later when the startup is worth something or exits they complain that they got a shitty deal (when they weren't willing to take on the risk).
