Waymo stock buyback

I am currently interviewing for waymo. Do they offer stock buybacks, or is the stock fully illiquid for now? #waymo

Sorry too busy laughing

it is neither of those things

sometimes they offer a buyback but it's not liquid at all

Waymo folks can you explain how it actually works? I’m considering a role there as well

I believe that they periodically allow employees to sell a limited percentage of their vested stock at the 409A value (there may also be a total dollar cap). Unusual and generous for pre-IPO, but limited utility.

Ah understood. It’s not like they will buy them all if/when you leave. Thx
