I thought the expectation was for VC funded CEOs to take low salaries. How often do they sell equity in fundraising rounds and/or take decent salaries (500k+)?

Oh, HN.


I think they are encouraged to in later rounds by some VCs: https://bothsidesofthetable.com/should-founders-be-allowed-t...

Now, seeing this, I would totally settle for some "unsatisfactory" $450K. :)


Heh. I mean decent for someone who has the skill to pull lots of VC money.

They are probably good at rising up the ladder in some company, that's a reasonable upper management salary for them there.
