He just knows too much. My takeaway was that restricted stock was much better for employees, since they got it for "free," owned it and could sell it for whatever price available on the day they decided. While options are priced on the day they vest, and if the price is below that when you go to sell, they can be worthless. Anyway, I was afraid to ask him about the tax implications for employees or the balance sheet of employers, since I decided NOT to go to Harvard Business School?
What did you think of the show? Got any suggestions for future guests. Love to know.
Good show Bill. I just had the chance to catch up and listen to past shows. I agree with you....I also walked away with the impression that restricted stock was far better.
As far as future guests are concerned, it would be great if you could have an industry expert......maybe even a rep from Vurv or Taleo (although I won't hold my breath).......to discuss the ripple effects in the industry from today's big news.
