I wonder. If you took the average value of all RSU/options granted over the past 10 years in tech, I'd venture to guess the number would be closer to 0 than not

  How do you even calculate that number? I can start a company tomorrow and give myself a billion dollar stock grant. That those are worthless doesn't take away from the fact that the total market cap of tech has grown by trillions of dollars over the last decade, and a good chunk of that gain has gone to rank-and-file employees via RSUs.

  Well if we're counting options as well, the median is probably around 0, but the mean will skew a lot higher :) If we count RSUs only, then the stock already has to be public, and it probably heavily weights towards FAANG and a pretty high average.
