We are talking about C*, Engineer Manager, getting almost 700k/year. Not developers.

Yes, so what's the problem?

    What is the problem of managers of a non-profit company earning around 700k/year and the company is writing blog posts complaining that the the company operation is too expensive? I think if you read it aloud, you will understand it.

    • When the numbers total $50m in operations and the CEO is making about as much as a principal Google engineer: no, I don't see the issue. Even if he made $0 the issue remains given that every part of the server operation costs more than him.

      But sure. What do you think is a fair salary or totalccomp for a founder and CEO of a popular, privacy focused app?
