      According to a google search, reddit has 2,233 employees. Meaning his bonus is ~$86.5k per employee.

      Whenever I see these giant C suite bonuses announced, it seems hard to imagine why every single staff member doesnt demand a massive raise, and they all strike till they get it. After all, the company has just proven they have the massive piles of extra cash and can afford it.
