Hiring quality verdict.
One billion monthly active ChatGPT users. $25B in annualized revenue. A workforce of 5,500-plus scaling toward 8,000 by year-end across nine offices on four continents. PPUs converted to RSUs in January 2026, removing the most-cited offer-stage objection in frontier-lab recruiting. Compensation sits at the top of the market — median $608K total comp, L5 software engineers above $1.1M TC per Levels.fyi. Remote eligibility covers just 4% of 670 open roles.
