I would guess that at least some of the early employees make it into the Officers and Executives club.

VP's are shown to average $1,000,000 on the same page. But that's only for companies which actually make it to IPO. And while $1,000,000 is a lot of money when it's yours, that's not FYM in Europe or the US.

I'd say it's Semi-FYM. You can't walk away for life, but you definitely don't have an issue with quitting to go lie on a beach for a year or two.

But presumably they're also getting paid market salaries.

Most Google, Skype, etc employees made way more than that.
