Employee share buy back programs
EPISODE 5
Almost all tech start-ups are setting up ESOPs (Employee Stock Option Plans) for their employees. The idea behind ESOPs is to incentivize employees and align them with the fortunes of the company.
But do ESOPs really perform this function? The illiquidity of the options may result in employees not appreciating or not understanding their worth and therefore missing on the incentivization goal. Should companies therefore enable employees to sell their options/shares? If yes, how should this be done?
