2) What to do with that information.
I don't necessarily need to know all of the in and outs right away, but it would be nice to know a some of the key things that I really ought to know in order to get some kind of handle on it.
- liquiddreams 11y agoI find this to be one of the better guides. There is a list of questions at the end you should be asking. https://equityzen.com/blog/understanding-equity-compensation-for-startup-employees/ https://equityzen.com/blog/understanding-equity-compensation...
- jxm262 11y agoI would like this , but one additional question is "when" should you ask? As in, what part of the interviewing process does one ask about outstanding shares, etc.. Should it be after an offer is extended, immediately after the technical part of the interview, etc..? I would feel awkward asking some of these specifics about financing early in the process.
- davemel37 11y agoIts only relevant after an offer is extended. View it as due dilligence...they are giving you equity in exchange for cash/less salary..the burden should be on them to prove its a good or fair deal.
