In a recent forum an executive enthusiastically talked about quadrupling the share price and getting investors to value our company differently. I am sure he is excited sitting in his pile of RSUs. But he forgets that for average joe employees we get nothing when the stock price goes up. Heck they cut our 401k match rather than reduce their own dividend checks. Employees get zero benefit from the stock price changing.

Can I refuse RSU?
When I think of the next round RIF, holding RSU can be a risk.
This is what we learned this time.
We don’t have low performers anymore.
High salary
High RSU
High age
Theses are the major factors of RIF selection.
If they give me RSU, can I refuse that?
If I’m not given more RSU in October I basically get a pay cut
If they don’t grant me the same quantity of RSU in October that just vested for me, I’ll get a pay cut. I’m inclined to mention this to my manager if this is the case. Anyone else facing a similar situation?
RSUs and Deception: Lawsuit?
Curious, if anyone else thinks there's a case here. It would seem that Oracle, grants certain employees RSUs. The intent is to get those employees to stay and remain engaged over the vesting cycle. RSUs are valuable, no matter what the stock price is.
However, part of the RIF process is to cut individuals that have large amounts prior to vesting. It's not by accident, it is a standard practice. Seems to be deceptive. I'm curious on thoughts from this community.
Unvested RSU
What happens to unvested RSU when -
- I quit .. voluntary with notice: RSU Lost
- Involuntary separation - fired: ?
- Involuntary separation - RIF/Layoffs: ?
- Voluntary separation program: ?
Advice to anyone with RSU’s
I received my first RSU about 6 years ago and have received a new one every year for the past 6 years.
My advice is this, do not sell. I am literally becoming rich from RSUs. I have colleagues who have sold them immediately after they vest who are now kicking themselves.
I’m not saying never sell, instead hold for a few years at least, you may get as lucky as me.
Peace
Oracle's logic on RSUs
Message from management is that we give RSUs to keep high performers and close to Zero base pay increments. During layoffs we they let go of certain people because they had a large RSUs due. So the logic appears to be make people slave with the promise of a reward and then cut them close to it. Oracle will sc--w you given a chance, make sure you view and treat them with the same manner. Worst severance in the industry - so always remember this and don't work too hard for Oracle, prioritize your interest first just like Oracle does. Seen multiple of my colleagues work crazy hours and then get like this. Out manager could not save them. Now it's 60 days for some of them to find a job or get out of the country. Others are burnt out and I don't think they are in a good space to do interviews. What does the 28 million dollar devils spawn tell us in the all hands - it is a good time to be at Oracle.
RSU question post-layoff
Got laid off a few weeks back and have some questions on the RSUs. If stock continues to drop, should I cash these out now versus waiting until the end of my severance to get the full paycheck? I’m worried what I have in here will tank by the time I get paid out, but this is also the first company I’ve had RSUs with so it’s still confusing to me
Are US Layoffs Over For Now?
I'm curious if US layoffs are still ongoing this week but at a smaller scale than they were on Monday. I ask cause I know people who got RSU vesting notices for the 15th 3 days before vesting, but have not gotten notices for other upcoming RSU vesting dates. Makes me wonder if that is an indicator of further layoffs?
You may be granted focal - but might not get it
I had an eccentric manager who was brutally honest and upfront in individual syncs. Manager was impacted yesterday. I see the focal posts, dropping what was told to me by my manager - I will fight to get you focal + RSU if you perform, but, understand Oracle is using the bad job market and AI hype to take advantage (no raises to base pay) and they use the RSU as a carrot to make you work but you might not be employed to get it - so don't work extra, do the best in your normal hours. Remote employees on our team got 3 days notice and lost RSUs. So don't work to hard, work smart and look to exit this company. USA where employees don't have good protection like our European and Asian colleagues.
RSU vesting
Can someone explain to me why unvested RSU needs to be forfeited when you leave the company.
RSUs are given as part of compensation for the work performed for the company. How can the company take away the compensation when you leave ? Isn’t this wage theft?
Stock go brrr 📉
Jfc ,at this rate it will touch 300 soon.
I don't even get RSUs , still as an employee, I want them to succeed, but dang this shi is tanking fast.
Wonder what the elliot vultures are thinking seeing this shi
RSUs question
Team,
My apologies if this question was answered already but allow me to ask once more: If we laid off this week, and we have a scheduled vested date for RSUs either this month or next month, is Oracle going to honor that or clawback those RSUs.?
What just happened!!
RSU value in red by 45%
I’m shocked, RSU targets in layoff candidates
Each team had budget (no surprise) but also a RSU reduction as a metric!
RSU
How many RSUs do people typically get at CL24, CL25, CL26 and above for Excellent vs. Outstanding ratings?
Does Trading having different compensation structure?
RSU vesting in next 50-60 days, your on list
If you’re not someone who owns the service at the IC4/IC5 level, you’re probably on the list. The last RIF targeted similar roles, and leadership has been pretty clear that AI is increasing productivity and that we can get more done with fewer people. So, indirectly, management is being pushed to cut IC3 and below.
One thing I’d also keep in mind is when your RSUs vest. If a significant portion of your RSUs is scheduled to vest in the next 60 days, that could be an important factor to consider. That’s just how things seem to be playing out.
RSUs post layoff
For anyone who was RIF'd- how does it work with RSUs? Is that all gone or do you get paid out? I see present vesting dates are 3/1/2027 and 3/1/2028
For those who got displaced, did you lose all RSU?
I got displaced this Tuesday. I have some RSU locked until 2028. Do I lose all of them?
I think the only scenarios you can vest is retirement or death.
L3Harris grants CEO 11,831 options, 3,036 RSUs
L3Harris granted its CEO Samir Mehta new stock options and restricted stock units with multi-year vesting beginning in 2027.
L3HARRIS TECHNOLOGIES, INC. (LHX) reported that President and CEO Samir Mehta received new equity awards on September 1, 2026. He was granted 11,831 non-qualified stock options with an exercise price of $263.56 per share, generally vesting ratably on September 1 of 2027, 2028, and 2029 and exercisable until September 1, 2036, subject to continued employment and award terms. He also received 3,036 restricted stock units subject to three-year cliff vesting on September 1, 2029, each unit representing a contingent right to one share of common stock, with vested units settled in shares.
You will never see those RSUs
Finally my RSUs are starting to vest and guess what. They tanked my ranking. This is the game they play. Force you out before your RSUs vest! How can I go from top to bottom so quickly? Convenient for them!
Loss of RSU when PIP
Will I lose my RSUs if I am PIPed and fail the PIP?
Performance based RSU?
The new 12k grant - Is that just for 2027 with 3 year vesting? It better be every year.
RSUs in California.
What happens to RSU vesting within next 60 days? Would anything within the WARN period vest?
Probable date
The date has to be Monday 24th of Aug. That’s 60 days before October 23.
October 23 is the final RSU payout for any RSUs this year. Other 3 dates are in September: 15,19,20.
I think this is sound reasoning.
RSUs
I’ll be getting RSUs this year for the first time. Are the RSUs based on a maximum dollar amount of your CL and ranking or is it a set number of shares no matter what the stock price is? I.e you get 20 shares at $100 and still 20 shares at $150 stock price.
“Sustainment Awards”
L3Harris Technologies approved special one-time equity Sustainment Awards for three senior executives, with target grant date values of $10,000,000 each for Kenneth Bedingfield and Samir Mehta and $5,000,000 for CFO Kenneth Sharp. The awards will be granted on August 3, 2026 under the 2024 Equity Incentive Plan as 50% performance share units (PSUs) and 50% restricted stock units (RSUs).
RSU Grant Date
Might be eligible for RSU’s for the first time this year what is Grant date for the RSU’s?
Jan 1 the year after ranking? The year before ranking?
April 1 the year after ranking? The year before ranking?
How bad did Enrique fumble this deal?
On scale of 1-10, how bad did Enrique fumble the Stripe deal? And how bad will our stock crash on Tuesday? Im wondering if I should just cash my vested RSU’s now before even bigger losses come.
RSU are contributing to stock downfall
Because of stock dilution
Year-End RSU Refreshes

CEO - It's a video game
I see the agony on this site. Many of you are uncertain about your future.
I just want to share with you. In a team call, CEO said a couple of years ago. “I love it. It’s like playing a video game, haha haha” It was in the context of managing
the business and reorganizing people. I know many of you probably we on the call. It’s really sad, but it’s the reality of the tech business. I never expected to hear from a CEO.
But, he really is transparent. Enjoys the RSUs. It all fun and video games.
RSUs part of layoff negotiation?
Did anyone who got impacted recently managed to get their RSUs vested sooner as part of the package?
RSU Values JG14-17
Does anyone know what the typical value of RSU grants are once you hit JG14 and then 15, 16, and 17? I’ve heard $25k annual grants starting at JG14 but unsure if that’s correct?
Thanks for the insight!
RSUs
Anyone know how to cash in the ones we got stuck holding onto for 3 years until a few months ago?
Did your RSU vest who got RIF this year post Feb?
Did you receive your RSU for this year already or is it still unvested? How long after your separation date it became available to withdraw?

4th July 🇺🇸
If I bet my life on anything, it’s American Exceptionalism rooted in integrity, excellence, and courage.
Working alongside our global teams has only reinforced it: no other country comes close.
Yet stepping back, it’s clear how offshoring and outsourcing to low-cost, low-capability paired with unchecked onshore importing,
has frayed the very fabric of this nation.
These are people who haven’t invented or dominated in any meaningful field beyond cheap IT services.
What the he-l are we doing?
These jobs belong to American workers.
Have we done nearly enough to build the skills of those in weaker economic corners? There are proven ways to give back: rigorous education, hands-on training, community engagement . Lift them into the middle class and show them how capitalism actually works: through merit, productivity, and upward mobility.
Instead, too many short-sighted, narcissistic managers chase RSU windfalls by flooding teams with cheap bodies, piling up technical debt and hollowing out our edge.
Enough. Everyone must do their part,whatever it takes. No excuses. . It’s now or never.
Latest LR Packages in US
Can someone please share the terms of the latest LR packages? Looking to understand how many months pay / year of service, how long health care runs for, what happens to RSU's etc.

Anyone else RSU grants completely out of whack
