It's the other way around - if you're trying to recruit an engineer or ops person from FAANMG, you can tell them "Well, I know you're an SWE 2 and make $300K/year, and we can't match that, but guess what, you can be the VP of Engineering at our 2-person startup and when we go public, you'll be a VP or SVP of a public company." You'd be surprised how many people fall for that.
