Newbie question: Given the current stock market where prices are so high, I’m wary of joining publicly traded companies that decide how many stocks you get based on current prices.

How about Stripe? Since they haven’t IPOed, should the market condition influence my decision?

Would love to hear your opinion.

    Stripe gives annual value grants so you're somewhat hedged against this, in the same sense that you have partial upside wrt increases in value.

    The private company valuations are usually based on comparables of public companies, so your equity grants will still be affected by a high market, but not nearly as much as they would be at a public company.
