How much equity do say the first 30 employees of a startup make? Let us say the company reaches a market cap of 1 billion dollars, is it likely that 100 million goes to the employees (10%) or even lower or higher?

Asking for mainly software/ AI startups and would love to hear from people with first hand experience or knowledge and less speculation.
