I've seen plenty of employees in the 20-25 range get 0.05% equity. Are they delivering less than 1% of the total value of the company? I would say not.

- user5994461 10y agoWell... why give more if they accept that? [definitely what the employers are thinking]
- ryandrake 10y agoMaybe it's the best they can find. It's not like tech jobs are growing on trees.
- acconrad 10y agoBecause it's institutional - the way it's always been. That percentage point made sense in the first dotcom boom when it required a lot of effort and capital to get a startup going. Inertia is an incredible thing, it's hard to change habits when the status quo is easier to adopt.
- kobeya 10y agoActually yes, they are probably delivering less than 1℅, according to a power law distribution.
