Hi
I work for a Bay Area Communications Semiconductor startup. Currently
there is a discussion going around about the stock options that
employees have. Some thinks we are below the current market, some
thinks we are at par. Of course the executive team thinks it is much
better :-)
I would like to get a feel from the people currently involved in hiring
or looking for jobs on the numbers people are expecting these days. I
am mainly looking at stock options as a percentage of outstanding
shares. To me the absolute number of stock options is somewhat less
im****tant for this comparison.
To make it simple, consider two employee types, emplyee number 1-2 and
employee number 15-20. Also consider 3 stages of a company: after seed
funding, after series A and after series B. I would like to see what
dilutation people would expect from one funding round to another.
Thanks a lot for all yout inputs. I promise to post a summary after few
days.
