Startup equity should be assumed to have a value of 0, which statistically it does. I've never seen one be competitive on actual hard currency compensation - even the hot ones. And that's before valuing your time per hour worked

In practice, no, the non competes are never enforced, and if the goal is to brag about high compensation startups don't matter.
