Better to have cash bonuses and not a dollar amount of stocks due to taxes coming out never expect the whole amount

I again asked for more during hiring and was award more, I believe having a stack in the companies stock, a small bit of ownership makes the job mean more.

This is part of the salary negotiation process. Depending on stock market performance, this could be worth a lot, or nothing

You get stock every year, depending on your performance.

Very uninspiring RSU grants. Grants between 5-15k are about average and are not even worth a pay check after a 4 year vesting schedule.

This plan is OK. But it has faults! You max out at 15% of your pay each pay period. You do not "always" get this. System "issues" and other excuses to rip you off from trying to get ahead.

Stock options in the beginning were more generous. Once you vest there is not much in the way of getting more even if you do a good job. I hear they save the stock for engineers.

Tesla stock options have made people very happy and their teeth even whiter than ever. There is no substitute for what Tesla's stock options can do.
