How Much Equity Should You Offer Your Startup’s Team Members?
There are several ways to grant someone an equity interest in a company, including outright grants of Common Stock, grants of Common Stock with restrictions that allow the company to repurchase some or all of the stock subject to a vesting schedule (RSUs), stock options that give someone the right to purchase stock in the future, and warrants (which are also a future right but which are not typically used for compensation and thus won’t be discussed here).
