Couldn't disagree more. Want to see employees work hard and be motivated? Give them equity that is a meaningful amount. I know it works for me... I work 10x harder for my current job where I have equity and stock bonuses than at previous jobs that were all salary.
- ZephyrBlu 6y agoWhy would you prefer equity/stock over cash? I would take cold hard cash over the same amount in stock any day of the week.
- mavelikara 6y agoKeywords here are “same amount”. You are right - there is no reason to prefer equity over cash. Cash is better, if the company could afford it. But many employers cannot afford it now, and they offer equity instead.
- bananaface 6y agoDo you work at a large company?
- diogenescynic 6y agoYes, previously at a ~$200b+ market cap and now at a ~$100b market cap company. Only difference is incentives--equity definitely works to motivate!
