Understanding Your Employee Stock Options




Understanding Your Employee Stock Options

While your 401(k) and home can be valuable sources of wealth, your employee stock options could potentially be worth much more.  As seen with companies like Microsoft and Amazon, employees can become millionaires. 

Yet stock options are not just for tech startups.  Just look at companies like Walmart and Nike, which have grown at staggering rates.

Despite all this, employee stock options can be extremely complicated and risky.  Making a wrong decision on taxes, for example, can be costly

So for this course, the focus will be on how to navigate the complexities of employee stock options and look at the ways to get the most value from them.  Note that there are six sections that cover topics like:

  • Learn about the main types of options:  nonqualified stock options and incentive stock options. 

  • Look at other equity compensation, like restricted stock and employee stock purchase plans (ESPPs).

  • Understand how taxes impact your options, such as with the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) and estimated taxes.

  • Evaluate the risks of employee stock options.

  • Show how to negotiate our options packaged. 

Bottom line:  After taking this course – which is under one hour – you’ll have a strong foundation on how to get the best from your employee stock options.
