I’m referring to Satyas email from May saying there will be no raises and the bonus pool will be significantly reduced

That’s fine for corporate employees, but OAI employees were promised mountains of money to leave Google/Meta, they might not be as happy

They don't have to leave OAI.

OAI is a startup. All these OAI employees who were playing up their million dollar salaries should know that startups come with risk. How many times has it been said that equity is worth nothing until (and if) it is?

In the grand scheme of the current IT economy, top of the queue for sympathy to me is not "people making seven digit salaries at startup who may have to put up with only making $500K+ at MSFT".
