Given tech workers complete inability to form a union or guild I wouldn't bet on it.

  Tech workers now have a lot of power in negotiations and are using it to demand high salaries. If options were ever offered to me in lieu of salary I would simply say no.

    Do we? Having a look at the revenue generated per person in Facebook vs General Electric we seem pretty shit at negotiating. The revenue per employee at GE is 400,000 at Facebook it's ~1,400,000. I'm not hearing FB paying people ~4 times the wages that GE does. Most I've heard is ~1.5 times for similar positions in similar locales, having friends in both. We have convinced ourselves we're special snowflakes while the lucky and ruthless laugh all the way to the bank.
