My privately held company is giving me options of 1000 shares of stock at a strike price of $10/share (claimed FMV) in lieu of a $10,000.00 bonus. That seems like trickery to me. Is this ethical?
I just got a job offer from a startup and it is giving me 1500 incentive stock options without strike price defined. Is it a good offer? Should I negotiate and ask for more incentive stock options?
