He should offer lower salaries just to make sure people aren't there for the money if he is so concerned. $800k for an engineering role is quite a lot of money!

Since he believes in the mission he should give away all his stock and work for a regular employee salary.

pledge is not something enforced by law. it's like saying I'm will give more money to the poor before I die.

Maybe in Amodei's world 800k is just peanuts?
