$1M isn’t really that much money when you factor in expenses like payroll and taxes. 3 US-based devs earning 200k each cost the company an additional 25-35% in payroll taxes and benefits, bringing the total cost north of $800k. I have no idea what the financial situation is there, but it personally doesn’t read to me as someone trying to be greedy. I sometimes think individual founders have it harder because they’re small enough to want to engage in communities like this while Fortune 500 companies have brutal layoffs impacting thousands while earning record profits and we just accept it. Google and Microsoft have committed corporate genocide in the last 12 months relative to this guy and yet it’s so much easier to criticize him instead. |
