eBay RSUs

Folks - I received an offer from eBay which inlcudes an annual refresher grant. But they refuse to include that in offer letter and say that it is a standard practice to not put annual refreshers on offer letter. Is that true ? #e-commerce #career #retail #ebaysalary #ebay

Nope. They should have the initial RSUs on the offer letter.

The initial RSUs are on offer letter. But the annual refresher grant paid in Feb of each year is not. The recruiter gave me that number but says they dont include it in offer letters. Could that differ by department?

Oh I am sorry, I understand your question now. Yes the annual refresher RSU grant will not be written in your offer letter, as it is performance based. It ranges from 20k-150k depending on your performance and level.

If it’s not black and white. It didn’t happen.

RSUs are part of your TC. They have to include that in your offer letter.

No company puts the refresher grant into an offer letter because it is almost always performance based.

He's not talking about refreshers. They haven't mentioned any RSUs in his offer letter.

Actually they are talking about refreshers - They didn’t explain it well in the original post but in another reply they mentioned the refresher grant.
