$125k -$150k with that amount of funding imo. 1-2% equity.
- helsontaveras18 3y ago^ this is typical for US founding engineer
- I_am_tiberius 3y agoEquity is heavily impacted by the state of revenue imo.
- seattle_spring 3y agoIf you’re joining as a founding engineer, it’s pretty safe to assume that the “state of revenue” is “zero.”
- I_am_tiberius 3y agoIn my case the business is 3 years old and we're still just the founding team. However, revenue is on a level where we can finance our lives. It would really need to be a heavy hitter for our first employee to get more than 2% equity. I think that's not so unusual, it's just unusual in Silicon Valley.
- server_man3000 3y agoOnly 1-2% for employee no 3?
- seattle_spring 3y agoSadly, yes. Unless you're an actual founder, this is about as good as it typically gets.
