Yeah, the average is around $190k or so. It’s brought up by one ~$300k salary for our CTO (who before he joined us made $400k+), and the median is ~$160k.
In general our salary policy policy has been “70% of your conservative industry salary in a kind of similar job”. This means the people on the generalist team have concretely worked for ~1.4x their current salary, or gotten concrete job offers for 1.4x their current salary, or when I asked some independent evaluators with industry experience had their salary estimated at 1.4x their current salary.
The generalists at Lightcone are pretty competent, so their opportunity cost is high, and as I mentioned in other places, I don’t think it makes sense for people to sacrifice more than 30% of their salary to work on these things.
