I tried to negotiate stock options as part of a compensation with an employer. They seriously considered it and almost gave in. After actually doing the research I realized, they would be worth nearly zero (there was some dodgy stuff on the financial records too). Then I decided to quit because it would be a waste of time and effort working there. Anyway, the moral I took from that was to seriously reconsider working at a place where the stock options are worth nothing. Probably consider consulting for them or something else more cash heavy.
