I do not believe everyone gets these shares.....outside of buying them
Vested - yes. Unvested depends on if you qualify for the Rule of 70. Now that I typed that out I realize that Rule of 70 might have been pulled by Frankie since I left 3 years ago. The old rules were combination of age plus years of service = 70 but he changed that to include “must be 60 years old” which screwed a lot of people who had already qualified.
Comments specific to Restricted Stock Units/RSU
Voluntary resign/termination--vested are your property, unvested are cancelled.
Exceptions for if you are specifically "retiring"--then under conditions, unvested shares may remain active and able to mature or vest on the schedule.
I resigned a few months ago.
Your vested shares are yours, but you will lose any unvested shares.
If you are CEO, you keep your unvested shares too.
Go on, prove me wrong.
Vested, yes.
