Hol up, this is a separate issue.
Having an unelected elite class manipulating what the masses see/ think is an issue that must be addressed.

>Sadly also see the entitlement to the lifestyle and income
So wait, you're basing all of this off of some hypothetical rich party bro who's just living up his super cool bonus package? That's really not the typical worker, even if this person does exist.
Plenty of people in these positions are just typical middle class folks. Almost all of the companies at this tier would actually pay me less than I make now, but they claim they'll make up for it with huge stock plans. I'm sure it's a great longer term deal, but I don't work there because I can't pay the bills with stock, especially stock that tends to roll in unvested.
Sure, they make more money than warehouse workers, but the existence of someone getting kicked in the pants harder than someone else doesn't mean they're not also getting kicked in the pants.

as someone who’s salary is over half in the form of RSUs it’s important that we stop feeling bad for these people. We know the risk we’re taking, and let me promise you that their base salaries are more than a reasonable overall wage.

Zucc isn't exactly the picture of smart decision-making. Look at how much money he's wasted on his metaverse .

^ this.
I think most western companies are using chinese labor and their relaxed environmental laws for the cheap/simple/hazardous stuff and keeping their secret sauce back home...if not, then they're even dumber than I thought

Ideally you want to make everyone happy, employees, costumers, vendors, but of course that includes the shareholders, after all, they own the business.
