Assuming these are RSUs are in a listed company whose shares are liquid, the things that are important are:

- the list of vesting events (including date and # shares)

- the current market price of the stock

You can use the above to calculate your future income at this job (after adding your cash salary and expected bonus). This will provide a benchmark against which to evaluate future job offers.

If you want to diversify your portfolio (rather than having a large part of your wealth linked to the stock price of your employer), then you could sell any shares immediately as they vest, and use the money to buy an index tracking ETF.
