The problem is the way company structures are currently set up, where founders get the majority of ownership, and employees just get the pool.
What does this mean? To me it means that the way a company structures itself needs to change. More ownership needs to be given to employees, and founders need to get less.
That how I want to start my next company. Double the options pool, and lower the founder equity. Just because your employee #1 and it was my idea doesn't mean I get to dilute your share of the company but that big of a margin. We'll all be doing a ton of work.
That being said, can someone tell me why this might be a bad idea? :)
