There's a reason the market doesn't compensate every early employee at a meh SaaS company with millions.
And I think the primary reason is that many early engineers don't realize what a shitty deal they're getting. The purpose of this thread is to let them know that, so eventually startups won't be able to hire employees with such shitty terms.
Go have fun negotiating 3% equity deals and six figure salaries to write Go all day, I’ll hire a smarter engineer for half the price from Kiev or São Paulo.
