> The funny thing is that an outlier such as instagram will not actually change the averages all that much.
The problem I see is access to the data to build that average. But I think we agree on everything else.
I'm a scientist/engineer and became a founder. I'm also distrustful when I meet the typical MBA starting a tech company to get rich quick. I'm just arguing that the uncertainties in that inequality will require some other way to make the decision (Is the pay fair (considering the market rate, the funding, the revenue)? I'm I a valued member of the team? Do I believe in the mission? etc).
