I thought it was interesting because it shows what other companies are doing for their employees that have been there for 10 years. This was a big topic at a previous company I worked at who had employees getting close to their 10 year mark and it looks like that previous company is just going to let those employees options expire and screw them over.

There are a lot of other people in the world that read Bloomberg news who are not Stripe and who are not Stripe investors.

For is interesting because as an employee I can see different job dynamics being played out and learn from that for the next position.

For instance: this is a big topic for folks that wants to join late stage scale-ups because since they are issuing RSUs instead options to be attractive for future employees it comes with a very risky dynamic that is the company let those RSUs expire, or worse: folks overhang in some financial obligations in some not liquid instrument.
