Data Point of the Week: Stock Options 11 years ago
I am now on my third startup and have never seen a dollar from my option grants, but I am forever optimistic. I would hate to be in a job where I didn't have at least some component of equity comp. I wonder if that's rational of me? Would love to have the data to show whether or not it's an economically rational decision in aggregate to prefer equity-based comp for startup employees vs. just asking for cash.
