Off-topic: Why would you wait a year to sell your RSUs?
You already pay income tax on the RSUs when they vest. If you sell them immediately, you’ll have a de minimis capital gain or loss.
Unless you actually would have turned around and bought your company’s stock with a bonus, you should really just sell immediately and ignore the trivial capital gain (or loss).
For ESPP it can make sense to hold, but even then, only if there was a huge increase in value since the beginning of the holding period, so perhaps that’s what you meant (but ESPP is capped at a very low amount, so that would be a tiny portion of your hundreds of thousands in RSUs).
