Employee Equity Allocation

Employee Equity Allocation I get this question often (and was asked again today). I wanted to include links to two really good posts (that I point entrepreneurs too) on this topic that are relevant to startups around the globe.

The first is by Fred Wilson who is a VC and a prolific blogger (one of my favorite VC bloggers):

The second is by a Sillicon Valley based entrepreneur Evan Reas who seems to have done a lot of research on this topic:

After reading these blogs, let me know if there are any unanswered questions, especially in the Indian context and I’ll be happy to address them.
