Founder-level performance for the originals employee-level for the rest. This is a mistake. It breeds resentment and makes the bar impossible to understand. Instead I try to identify which employees regardless of when they joined are performing at founder-level and then treat them accordingly. Public recognition faster promotion more equity.
