It is a truism in Silicon Valley that star employees are worth ten to one hundred times as much as ordinary employees. This calculus is especially true for software engineers, but also applies to product managers, sales executives, and other key employees. If you are a star performer, the sky's the limit in terms of what technology companies will be willing to attract or keep you. Hire stars, and not only will they work harder than everyone else, but they will also lift the performance of the entire company. I've witnessed this happen at both technology and media companies. The stars come in and raise the bar, and everyone else picks up their game as a result (either out of pride or fear, or some combination of the two). But not everyone can be a star. And sometimes stars fade when they are taken out of the environment in which they became stars in the first place.
