  >>Seriously can’t they The word 'they' suggests some kind of hive mind at work. In reality it's more like 1 - 2 people at the top making decisions. If those people drag their heels for ever, or just don't care it won't happen. The real question is why should they care. I mean even if you give them stocks, by the time they vest, they would have got their money. After that you can go work for whomever you like. So why should these people care?
