Sometimes it is if the company feels generous, though even in countries with strong employment law these benefits have no statutory protection.

One of my previous employers had a rule where they would vest all of my RSU if I were to die while employed there.

Idle curiosity: Was that in lieu of or in addition to life insurance? (Most of my employers have had free life insurance with a payout of a multiple of base salary.)

That's in addition. Just a goodwill thing that they did.

I suspect most FAANGS have some kind of RSU vesting acceleration due to death. Amazon accelerates two years of RSUs upon death.

Anyone fake their death?
