> 10/20/30/40 vesting schedule What does this mean?

  I suspect (and somebody else please correct me if I'm wrong) that it refers to how much of your options vest over a period of time. So you'd get 10 percent of your options after one year, another 20 percent at the end of your second year, another 30 percent at the end of your third, and the remaining 40 percent at the end of your fourth year. Note that in order to collect even half of your options, you need to work there for three years.

    This is correct. Snap has this structure in place before their ipo. Source: I had an offer from Snap 3yrs back which I rejected because of this.

  If I am correct, it means you can make use of 10% of stock options that you are given as compensation after the first year of employment, 30% after the second year, 60% after the third, and all of it after the fourth. It means that you have barely more than a quarter even after two years, and barely more than half after three.
