> Salary is identical, equity is not.

Thank you. This is the question I was hoping to see an answer for.

More important than just getting answer, do you understand _why_ every employee isn't granted the same amount equity?

		Isn’t it obvious? This is where they vary compensation for the same reasons everyone else varies compensation. If they gave everyone the same equity compensation presumably they’d put that front and center like they do for the base salary. The claims about paying everyone the same are a red herring because it’s only about base salary.

		Because if you want to poach talent then you'll likely need to induce them to leave their existing employer and will need to match their existing equity grants that might soon vest. Obviously that number is different for different people.
