Our Compensation Philosophy:

• Market-based: Our formula ensures new hires earn at or above current 75th percentile cash compensation benchmarks.

• Ownership: Our generous equity program ensures new hires are owners, not just employees.

• Transparent: We openly discuss salary expectations to avoid surprises later in the process.

• Data-driven: We use objective data to remove bias and ensure consistency in compensation decisions.
