AKA skipping the discussion
> I assume they are all giving every employee the same % of equity as the founders? No?
And then in this latest comment, you're again clipping off the part that pretty succinctly addresses your original question.
> ...but in short, equity compensates for risk – and in a startup, risk reduces over time: the first employee takes much more risk than the hundredth
So, connecting this back to your original question, no, they explicitly answer that by saying they do not give every employee the same percentage of equity as the founders or earlier employees.
My guess is the answer to all of them is no, and stock comp, bonus etc. all vary wildly based on title, job description, location, industry experience and all other standard criteria used industry-wide. And if that's the case then despite the standard $190K base salary the actual comp distribution among their employees is going to look exactly like that at other companies despite all the PR.
