    I'm sure anyone smart enough to join Lyft factored this into their TC numbers.

      Then, why would engineers join a company if it were going downhill? Isn’t it bad for his career?

      When people join, they believe in the hype for a shot of the upside. Why does anyone join venture backed companies, take salary cuts, and work longer hours...

      Most of Google is working on "other than ads". Apps, Chrome, Android, Cloud, Maps, Gmail, etc. I don't know anyone in the Seattle area working on ads. I'm building a cloud service that I think should be pretty awesome for GCP users.

      Oh, and DO is pretty cool.

    Lyft employees joining pre IPO got stock at $47. So not down by a lot, although no gains as thought. Uber is even more fucked up. Pre IPO stock was at 49

      Lol your initial number of stock depends on that and hence your taxes as well (partly though).

      The $47 is the price that was used to determine how many shares he got.
