Are previous applications for other roles considered or should I submit again?


What's the comp bands on these roles?


Is there equity available?


Thanks for asking - we are building the company for a long term hold and do not offer traditional equity that you’d see in a VC backed company. Instead we’ve committed to a quarterly bonus based upon revenue.


Maybe they have? Or they want to validate if people will pay for things?


Yes, but about different things.


Assume the money disappears if it doesn't turn into $1MM.


So you don't mind if you essentially gamble it and lose it all, as it would disappear anyway?


jQuery is still shipped with WordPress and Drupal, two of the most popular CMSes out there. So I'm sure that accounts for some of it.


Ads would've resulted in people complaining about user experience. And no one pays a full "lifetime" for anything. For an acquisition like this it's usually a multiple of 5 years of earnings. Probably more because of the popularity.


Do you scrape the job listings or ...?


Nope, almost all of it is directly from companies.


Great post, something I'll share with my team. Thanks.
