Browsing OpenAI's careers page, I'm seeing at most $275k for most positions, so I'm assuming the median is much lower than an average being pulled up by a few rockstar positions.

You also need to take into account equity, since it went up 250% in a year it can be a large amount of someone's compensation.

    Until it’s really liquid it’s still fiction. The salary and other cash compensation is all that matters until you can actually sell the options

      Want does “really” mean?

      If there are enough opportunities to offload stock on the secondary market (which seems to be the case of them), then it’s not fiction.

      Aren't their secondary markets for this? My wife gets offers constantly for her options even though they're not public yet and the offers are higher then what she was awarded them at. Maybe it's scams? we never took any of them up on it.
