Founding Engineer is important when they complain about low pay especially when 100% of their compensation is shares.

Delta-v from MIT is kinda of an accelerator and has had some good exits.
hire indian remote devs at $30k/yr
Seems like your point about non-YC accelerators having a 0% hit rate is incorrect. Some googling shows SendGrid, Remitly, Pillpack, and DigitalOcean from TechStars. Postmates and Pipedrive came out of the AngelPad accelerator.
Still low, but not 0.
60k/yr ? i am getting 3k/y remotely 5% equity.
Ph4se0n3, timestamp please.
0:10 $60k in SF ?
Rent is expensive in SF, how are you gonna live????
The office approach kind of applies if you are single… once you have a family office starting to makes less and less sense… if you hop few startups your not going to move every single time because it 'help' the startup
Theo, that’s all well and good but what if there’s multiple companies and they’re offering shares from one company and not the other that are getting diluted? All your examples assume that there’s only one company not a bucket company with other companies attached to it.
