#102. Your guide to navigating the equity compensation jungle (inc. ISOs, NSOs, RSUs, & ESPPs).
Manage episode 317994578 series 2953307
ISOs, NSOs, RSUs, and ESPPs all together.
In this episode, Trishul and Aaron discuss alternative forms of employee equity compensation. In addition to ISOs, there are NSOs, RSUs, and ESPPs, and each one comes with different tax implications. Your employer can grant access you any combination of these plans. So then, how do you decide when to exercise and when to sell? You can choose to hold on to everything for the upside. Or you can sell everything as soon as possible to lock in your benefits. But most people end up somewhere in the middle, and that's where things get complicated.
