Anyone else’s excited for their Sharing Success award! Such a thoughtful thing our company does, rewarding us with a whopping 65 units….
The RSUs and cash bonuses are pathetic.
Meanwhile, BM (Bowel Movement) unloads nearly 17k shares for just under $1m in the middle of each month.

RSU question
Admittedly, I don’t know much about the stock market or these RSUs. But whenever I log onto the Fidelity app, it shows there’s 6 RSUs to my credit. I thought it was 10 given to us back in 2023. Can someone explain without being a pr--k?
Frontier’s Big Payday
The people lamenting the departure of the Frontier executives have it backwards. Here’s what actually happened:
1- Frontier was loosing money and marketshare
2- Activist hedge funds took a stake in the ailing company and shepherded it through a bankruptcy which reduced its debt
3- They recruited John Stratton, Nick Jeffery and other executives to lead the company after emerging from bankruptcy. Those executives received significant awards of stock and RSUs. The RSUs would vest immediately upon sale of the company
4- Frontier’s situation improved under their leadership although it’s still losing money
5- The hedge funds and the executives got a big payday by selling the company for $20 billion in cash to Verizon. Stratton made about $100 million, Jeffery about $90 million and the hedge funds made billions in profits. The Frontier executives had to resign in order to maximize their payday. They would have been fools to stay.
Switching to another bank/competitor
Hi all, I got an offer at another big bank/competitor. As a VP in risk/controls department, I see that I am required to give a 30 day notice period. Anything less and I will lose my RSU and will be ineligible for rehire.
What is likely to happen if I disclose that I am switching jobs to a competitor and I give my 30 day notice? Will they let me go on the spot, or will they let me finish out my 30 day notice period?
What is the most optimal time of year to retire with rule of 75?
I guess the best time to retire was yesterday. If I want to maximize the amount RSUs I receive, when is the best time to retire? After this years RSUs are received?
Bank of America
Bank of America staff is getting $1B in equity due to record profits ~ 9th year in a row.
Btw....they are hiring!
https://careers.bankofamerica.com
laid off July 2025, Last pay date August 31. What day in Feb is last RSU payout?
End of February would be final date I qualify. Still looking for next job.
Notice Period
I am not able to get it from the HR site. Eliza is also not helpful in this aspect or I am no good in using Eliza - who knows
Waiting for the 401k matching credit (or should I) and the bonus check. Foregoing the RSUs
Questions are
- What is the notice period for SVP level employee?
- This year we have 25 days vacation - can these days be used during the notice period - including other time off benefits like Work from Anywhere, paid Safe time and other - are they prorated
- How does benefit work during the notice period -
- Am I still an employee (and rules bound) or can I be employed elsewhere in parallel
- Most importantly, how does compliance work in terms of trading - they can no longer terminate me ... This I wont HR will answer or Eliza can interpret
- Since I am leaving voluntarily how does the NDA and IP impact me during notice period and AFTER that (most importantly)
Feb 2026 RSU and Raise
When will promotion, raise and RSU refresh be notified for Feb 2026 cycle?
RSUs
What are the different ways of managing RSUs after the restriction period is over? What are the tax implications?
Cash Award 2026?
Any word on a cash award coming for 2026?
Past couple of years it has paid out end of Jan / early Feb.
I wonder if the $2k RSU from last year will cause us not to get it.
RSU after redundancy
Just checking if the Brit’s got their RSUs as part of the redundancy program. It would be very bad form if EM didn’t give to us after all but wouldn’t surprise me with this company. Im playing the waiting game for the Australia communication.
Stock Options
Vacation pay rec'd 1/2/26, anyone hearing when our LTI Stock units will be available? I've got 530 RSU's coming my way. Best of luck to all those Rif'd.
Year end bonus and RSU (stock options)
Did anyone else notice how much smaller the end of yesr bonuses were?
I10 to get RSUs
Every year, I am told - by a series of different managers - that you have to be an I10 to get RSUs. Is this true? Anyone receive RSU grants below I10?
Dear HockTan, thank you for making us rich, and thank you for continuing to support ESG despite our division’s forever poor performance
As you know, many of us in the Symantec and Carbon Black divisions are in a resting-and-vesting mindset. We don’t care whether the division performs well; we only care about the RSUs going into our pockets.
Either you are delusional or clueless about what to do with our division, but please keep us and continue granting us more RSUs.
Are they really canceling unvested RSUs ?
Long standing BNY employee here with unvested RSUs maturing over 4 years running into $200K.
Now concerned that my time is up. Is there any truth to the rumor that they are canceling RSUs if you are fired?
RSUs and Bonus?
I was given RSUs a few weeks ago. Does that mean I won’t get a cash bonus during my January compensation conversation?
What are the bonuses typically for US developers? Senior associates, vp, and senior vp levels.

RSUs Not Vested
I had 5 RSUs scheduled to vest today. When I checked my account there are no pending transactions and now the next transaction is scheduled for March of next year. Is this happening for anyone else?
RSU's
did anyone receive RSU's after layoffs? In my final letter, they haven't mentioned anything specifically about RSU's but on my etrrade it shows RSU vesting pending.
Laid off and still getting RSU's and Awardco points
Anyone else recently laid off get that email today?
I already logged in to Fidelity and accepted the RSU's before they change their mind.
VSP details
I got the email. I am a high performer so it was not based on that. I suspect the offer is age based to get rid of the high salary folks. I am 62.
Exit date May 31 2026.
Depending on your level 8 - 26 weeks severance (26 weeks is VP level).
RSU - an additional year of vesting.
2026 Bonus will be pro-rated.
30 days continuation Medical
18 Months Subsidized Cobra (you pay what an employee pays).
Thought might be useful info, so bumping the post up. OP: @aq+1kbjqa3b6
VZ pays him $59.5M in stock for this leaders?

250% sti = $3.7m
$59.5 grants due on 2027

$20m
$30m
(As reported in Verizon's SEC filings for his appointment)
Admit it
The Broadcom RSU money is life changing
The Executives received their RSUs
225K for Darren. He’s got about 2 million shares now
KAM is just disgusting to me. After 3 years already accumulated 645K RSUs.
JPW and NAC both received 118K shares this year and each have about 1 million shares.
It’s disgusting what goes to the top
FY26 raise and RSU thread
G10
Raise: 0%
RSU: 0$
G12 RSU and raises
Came in as a G12 employee through a Cisco acquisition. The first year was simply aligning the base pay and bonus to match Cisco. The second year, got full 18% bonus, $45K RSU but no base pay increase.
How is Cisco with G12 comp? Are there annual RSU refreshers and/or base pay increases?
I've also seen posts about how G12 are generally at a higher risk for layoffs. With the company pushing for margins it's making me anxious.
2026 RSU due in March, do we still get that ?
Do we still get that rsu that was supposed to vest in March?
Need advice on RSU vesting.
My RSU will be vesting in first week of Dec but I got laid off as of today 14th. Along with notice period and garden leave, the last day is on Dec 12th. Will i be eligible to receive RSU's or they will forefiet it.
in the offbording package, they havent' mentioned anything specific on RSU's other than saying, the benfits will continue until the last day.
Question About Year 5 Comp and RSU Refresh
For new hires, the minimum total compensation (for example, a $100k base salary + $100k in RSUs) is locked in for the first four years as stated in the offer letter, but that guarantee expires in the fifth year. When I checked the compensation section on my.company.com, it only showed my $100k base salary and didn’t mention RSUs at all.
Can anyone clarify how total compensation works starting in year five? Will the RSU portion remain the same as the amount listed in the original offer letter, or will it be adjusted based on the current market compensation for my job level and performance?
Stock-RSUs
Nothing like a layoff and getting g F’ed by the stock price at the same time. I’m sure there are some like Uncle Larry taking it to the bank.
Cutting 15k Employees = Decent RIF Package?
Cutting 15,000 employees should save the company mucho dinero (after the initial cost outlay). That said, hopefully those let go will receive a good severance payout…including health coverage, STI and remaining stock plan.
Severance package
Can you anyone advice about severance. I feel the package offered was very low or is it just like this?
Completed 1 year + week
Payout includes : 2 weeks of notice pay
3 weeks pay in lieu
CIP payout
RSU (not sure, if it will be vested, vesting date in mid-dec
Is it expected or can i negotiate and if so what should i ask?
Hey, here's some RSRs, now you get to pay FICA taxes on them
Under certain conditions you are now going to pay taxes on your UNVESTED RSRs. So you don't get sh*t for 4 years, but you get to lose shares due to the FICA taxes on them.
I understand this is IRS law but still.
RSUs not part of severance
I’m a GL31, that was laid off. My last day is late November. I have been with Optum for six years, and have been in various roles (including two integrations). During that time I’ve accumulated a decent amount of stock options (all currently worthless at the $400-500 strike price), and stock RSU grants. My next RSU vesting is Feb 21, and would have amounted to about $30K (at today’s share price). I also obviously am not getting a bonus for 2025.
My severance letter is offering to give me 12 weeks of pay, plus a week of unused vacation. No RSUs, etc.
My question is - before I sign my severance agreement, should I have a lawyer attempt to negotiate the inclusion of my RSUs as part of my package? Has anyone done or heard of this being a successful strategy?
I have 45 days after my last day to sign the letter. I feel I’ve put it the vesting time of six years waiting for these stock awards to vest, and that I should receive these RSUs that are just a couple months shy of vesting. Do I have any case?
Thanks for any advice you may have.
STI & Benefits
I’m “assuming” for those who get cut, they’ll work until 12/31 and will get 2wks pay for every yr worked, healthcare coverage for same period and STI / stock vesting paid out?
Jacob's at the wheel!!!
Removing RSU is the best business decision. illumina has exceptional gross margin now. Give credit where it is due... A toast to Jacob!
Restricted stock bonus
I assume the restricted stock bonus is gonna go away once you’re laid off. Is this true?
Unvested RSU’s
How are these generally handled during reduction in force? Are they prorated?
