News to me. Company value, dilution, risk, revenue, profit, outlook, etc. have significant weight.

  Yes those matter to selecting any company, but equity % does as well

    Why? Assuming we’re talking about normal employee options, if you’re early and get a big % that gets diluted, someone with a smaller % later can end up with more shares.

      Strike price is much lower, so it's cheaper to exercise and potentially more tax-favorable due to QSBS too
