Does a data analyst at a startup get equity?

Often, though few postings say how much: 36% of the 448 data analyst postings we've read mention equity. The figures on this page are base pay only.

Where do these figures come from?

From the postings themselves: the pay range each employer states, on roles still taking applications, which we check against the company's own careers page every day. Each posting counts once, at the middle of its range. Postings that don't state pay, and pay in other currencies, are left out of the main figures.
