> The post has since garnered 9 million views and 5,000 likes on the platform — and it kicked off a conversation about salaries in the tech world.

I wish they'd quoted some of that conversation, it sounds interesting. Instead, all they quoted were a bunch of people on Twitter who seem not to have much of an idea how compensation for leadership is derived or negotiated. I love that they also carefully note how many likes each take got, as though that were an important measure of journalistic salience.

I think its a not unreasonable measure of how the mob feels about the issue.

I think a high brow discussion of leadership salaries is a lot less interesting that the ever expanding gap between people working in tech and everybody else.
