Meta E6 offer.
The last 4 years I’ve been working with a professional services firm that I’ve helped grow significantly - I was employee #1. The owner just sold the company and now has a 12 month earn out. I didn’t have equity and he’s offered no bonus or compensation- just “thanks, couldn’t have done it w/o you.” The company that acquired us has offered a bonus after 12 mos and equity in their org. 1. Should I be miffed that he offered no financial appreciation? 2. Should I stick around or gtfo?
Fucked up by not getting equity - isn’t that the whole point of joining a small company / startup?
💯
Consider it as lessons learned. Just remember not to undersell yourself. Or thinking along the lines “I don’t care about tc right now, just want to learn”. I know a few new grads who think that way.
Absolutely a lesson learned.
“I didn’t have equity”
