I was lucky enough to once be employed by a company that didn't promise me any equity. They paid me a good salary and treated me well. The founder sold the company after I'd been there for about 10 months. I was called in to speak with him and given a nice check. (Still had my job too.) I'd much rather work for a guy like that.
