Stock Options?
1 comments

Stock Options != key equity ownership. Neither does employee equity, because the key word there is "key".

If you get hired at Amazon, you get stock options after your vest is done. This does not mean you have any real impact at all on company decisions.

The idea of employees owning the company is Marxism 101. No fucking way any founders in this economic system will be for it
