Seems like you should have been fully vested from any original grants by now. So, 8 year vesting, plus the low salary? Hope you are learning things that will position you for success in your next role.
- dudul 5y agoThe 400k may be 2 different grant. One when they joined the company that is now fully vested, and a new one that just started for another 4year vesting. At least I really hope that's the case, because an 8 year vesting schedule is idiotic.
- throwaway_9989 5y agoYou're correct. There were multiple grants, not exactly 2. The vesting schedule is standard and there is nothing abnormal about it.
- webmaven 5y ago> You're correct. There were multiple grants, not exactly 2. The vesting schedule is standard and there is nothing abnormal about it. So, can we assume some portion of the options was granted more than a year ago, and has vested already? Your compensation is quite low, I would suggest negotiating now for a higher (market rate) salary and them making you whole after their next raise. This whole situation has tax implications that could turn out badly for you in some scenarios, so you may need the money from that extra income to deal with that.
