A good company will reward key people with equity. Either you were not a key person or you badly picked the company you worked for.

- lapcat 3y ago> Either you were not a key person or you badly picked the company you worked for. This is a really uninformed and insulting reply. You speculate without having any knowledge or details about the situation. First of all, I didn't join the company with the intention of staying 8 years or rising to management; I joined because they offered a big pay raise from my previous job. So no, I didn't badly pick the company I worked for. Second, I personally wasn't looking for equity, I was looking for power, the ability to make independent decisions. Third, a more general point: BigCo engineers get equity in the company, but they're still just cogs in the machine.
