just wondering,
1. 4.5k base, 14k vested stocks every year for 3 years. ( Every Dec get 14k SGD worth of stocks ) 2. 5.2k base, 0 stocks. which is better and why? personally I feel option 2 is better even tho TC is lower than option 1. option 2 will yield higher pay raises due to higher base. After every salary inc or promo, base salary will rise faster than option 1. what do u guys think? am i wrong in this ? |

I think depends!
Stocks value might rise and drop, so there's an element of uncertainty. For example, if you have stocks working at Meta or Paypal or SEA for the past few months, you prob see a drop in 20-50% of your TC over the past few months. Also depends if its stocks or stock options. If its options in a startup, then theres also a liquidation aspect to consider |

its RSU stocks, the company says they'll give me 14k sgd worth of it every year for 3 years. but lets say if i want job hop next time, how ? do i only do it after stock vests or quickly bail 9+ months before vest ? i feel like this RSU stock nonsense is like a dirty way to keep employees lol |

"dirty way to keep employees" -> but same can be said about AWS and annual/performance bonus mah haha as long as both parties willing, why not? I think its not really a scam but more of a risk/uncertainty thing. For example, if you join SEA at their IPO days, your stocks value increase by 30x (i think?) but if you join 3 months ago, it would drop by 50% |
