This math feels off. It’s hard to imagine employee #20 making “only $1m” when there are engineers at Lyft getting $1m+ equity packages as offers today. Maybe their initial grant would be worth that much but for sure there would be a large number of subsequent grants since joining at #20.

$1m+ equity offers today? Hmm... that sounds pretty high.

Not unsurprising, 1M equity over 4 years at today’s valuation is fairly common.
