Comment on Ask HN: Equity for a first employeeparent

Comments

How true is this really? Employee #1 is getting diluted way down if the company takes a B round, but isn't getting diluted at all if the company gets snatched up early.

Should your first employee be outranked by a post-funding exec? Well, Twitter hired Dick Costolo. You need some pretty amazing Django chops to "outrank" him.
