This article doesn't mention vesting at all and seems rather aggressive on the other points. I wouldn't hire anybody who wasn't willing to vest their stock.

- gaius 18y agoSo long as it's the same deal as the other founders/partners.
- ryanwaggoner 18y agoAgreed...I walked away twice from a fledgling startup that wasn't willing to offer me fair terms. The first time, they offered equity that was barely in the single digit range ;-) Neither of the other two founders are technical people, and they can't afford to hire someone, so I found this pretty laughable. They came back with a much higher percentage, but they wouldn't agree to me getting the same vesting arrangement that they were getting / would get in a future round. So far, they've not really gone anywhere since I walked.
