I'd be interested in this too but I doubt the information is public. They must be doing something right for such a small operation.



Actually the company is registered in Finland where everyone's tax records are public, but you need to wait for the next tax year.

I guess that like usually in Finland, salaries are rather modest compared to Bay / US in general (around 40-100k eur), but because of the functioning society, many things are free and taken care of (education, healthcare, daycare), your standard of living can end up higher.

Equity/stock options for employees are almost unheard of and I wish more startups would pick it up. Supercell is also an exception in this regard, that they now offer stock options for everyone (they started it after the last 100M round).

If it works anything like in Sweden (i suspect it does), the employer pays a high tax too. The employer pays about twice of what ends up in the pocket of the employee.

So I guess the salary levels are comparable.
