There is so little information written about equity for tech employees, and even less by software engineers who benefitted from it. Uber and Square engineer @mcdickenson wrote the book Equity Compensation for Tech Employees, which fills this gap. Here's the table of contents: t.co/DgguejvvwQ

I reviewed the book before it was out, and it's a must-read if you are either based in the US or are/will be working for US-based companies issuing equity. Or if you want to know more on this important topic. Get the book here: t.co/iLmhmsApH5 t.co/I5b74FhzbP

What I *really* like about this book is the first-hand perspective theoretic approaches. @mcdickenson was there when Uber went IPO (all engineers had RSUs/options). He works at publicly-traded Square where engineers get equity. This is a book by an employee, for employees.

I’ve linked the book as a recommended resource if you want to go beyond the surface level I cover in this article t.co/WxQ9pQh2mY
