How do stocks as a compensation package work?

189 views

I work for a start up and received (x) amount of stocks as my compensation package. We are not public yet, however I don’t fully grasp how I can exercise these stocks once they are fully vested. What are the steps when I’d sell, and how much could I potentially make here?

It will depend on the IPO and if you think the price will increase after that. Is your company using a financial company like Fidelity to manage your account until it is vested? If so I would talk to them. There may be more options than holding or selling.
