Replied byKenny mendes
Chief People Officer at Superhuman
Niche: AI
Revenue: Not Publicly Disclosed/month
Location: San Francisco, California, United States
Started: 2015
We give new hires three distinct choices when extending an offer: high cash with low equity, medium cash with medium equity, or low cash with high equity. This trains employees right from the start to think critically about their ownership and understand that equity is not just a lottery ticket but a core component of their wealth.
