No just cut back on stock options aka a paycut for the staff.
- adventured 9y agoA further quarter of a billion dollars in stock options per quarter is insane when stacked against a $15-$20b market cap. Practically no sustaining public companies operate like that, with that scale of constant dilution.
- wpietri 9y agoIt'll be interesting to see what that does to their hiring and retention, though. They are competing for people with Facebook, Google, etc. They weren't previously giving out those options to be nice.
