Don’t know if this is real or not but if the person was hired in 2000 they likely received stock at $35/sh worst case. And follow on grants. It’s $450 now so I assume, at least financially, the arrangement worked well?

Even if they sold all stock immediately upon vest, they made several million dollars in the worst case scenario. Likely much more.

  • Receiving millions of dollars in the past doesn't necessarily make being laid off today less painful. What if he invested those millions of dollars in Enron, Lehman Brothers, or Mt. Gox?
