I don&#x27;t know a single small company that pays out anywhere <i>near</i> 500k&#x2F;year, so... no. That&#x27;s 3-4 dev salaries -- unlikely you&#x27;re worth that to a small company. This level of compensation is only provided by massive companies.<p>IMHO you&#x27;re looking at this kind of all wrong. I.e.:<p>Are you happy with the amount of money your have now? If so, you can leave early.<p>Otherwise:<p>Just wait it out?<p>What are your other options, really?
