EMPLOYER-STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
Some employees (especially many working for rapidly growing technology companies) receive some of their compensation in the form of employer-stock options (ISOs and non-qualified stock options), restricted stock, restricted-stock units (RSUs), and the right to participate in an employee stock purchase program (ESPP). At the same time, many employees do not fully understand the tax and investment consequences of participating in these opportunities, many times until after decisions have been made. Additionally, there are few resources available to help develop a strategy for the many decisions they will make in the future as participants in these plans.
