I think that CUBE would have to pay market salary plus stock in order to attract good people, because its stock has gone nowhere. On the other hand, MSFT pays notoriously low salaries (approximately 70-80% of market) plus stock to attract very good people. Because of the MSFT stock appreciation, no one complains about the salary.
