[Financial Times: Telegram team has about 50 people and is very young, with an annual salary of $500,000] Golden Finance reported that according to the Financial Times, Telegram founder Pavel Durov said that the company has only about 50 employees, including 30 strictly reviewed engineers. Its team members are selected by holding programming competitions and recruiting winners to join. The programmers in the team are mainly from Ukraine. A person familiar with the matter said that Telegram employees are usually super young Eastern Europeans with an annual salary of $500,000. Pavel Durov revealed to the Financial Times earlier this year that its employee turnover rate is almost zero. Because they have the same values ​​and believe in the company's mission. Durov himself is the core figure in decision-making. Despite having nearly 1 billion users, the speed of innovation is closer to that of a startup. He personally does not like to regard himself as a co-director or boss, but prefers to regard himself as a product leader. Without his in-depth participation, no new features will be launched.
