You're probably going to have to switch jobs to get anything better. You can try your own startup, but that also is hard. 1/500 options are nothing. When they raise money, you will be diluted. So if you have 0.5% now, you might have only 0.1% or less when they cash out. So if they sell for $100M, 0.1% is only $100k. When you consider 4 year vesting, that's only $25k/year.
