Which companies offer RSUs in units rather than in $$$?

Amazon offers RSUs in units. Meaning if Amazon stock goes up after signing your offer, you benefit from the increase. Are there other companies that follows this approach? They mostly offer dollar amount instead.

Example : I had a friend of mine signing at Shopify in 2019. They offer 100k in RSUs over 3 years. The number of units he got / will be getting every year only is based on feb 2020 price.
So since the stock went up (a lot) after he signed the offer, he benefited from the increase even though it was in dollars.
I think most firms proceed this way and would be shocked otherwise.
