Stock grants aren't costless. You have to pay taxes on them (at either the time of grant or time of vest).

- kasey_junk 7y agoMost are setup to have dual triggers so they only vest when they are worth something. Which means the grantee has a lot less cash exposure.
- harryh 7y agoOh interesting. I've never actually seen a setup like that. I will now consider negotiating for something like that if I ever again join a startup. Thx!
- kasey_junk 7y agoDouble trigger RSU vesting is the ‘standard’ now. It’s so much better for employees that I now see the use of options as a big red flag.
