What if the ipo failed? Then you end up with worthless stocks and also paid taxes on them. It seems straight forward now but probably won't hold true for every startup.
This is part of the reason for the Uber lawsuit. They accelerated everyone's vest date right before ipo and then the stock dropped. If the ipo succeeded, all of them would have been happy about the acceleration.
