So why are most employees given salary or hourly pay without stock rewards? Shouldn’t the company want to incentivize employees for the company’s success? I understand there are a lot of people who defend their companies or corporations without much investment incentives given. I still don’t see why it is not a common benefit to give.
I will never care about any company I work for. They can give me stock, sure, but I know it’s not my company and I don’t want to work harder for one extra peanut. I rather get time off then. :)
Give everyone 6 weeks vacations and 4 day work weeks to start with. It’s more than fair. Let people have time off and enjoy their lives. But not going to happen.
I get what you mean though, and I’d say it’s a personal preference. Equal stock in a company or a similar measure of profit sharing IMHO is just getting employees a fair shake in compensation. Others like yourself might place a shorter workweek at a higher priority.
Stock grants are pretty common in tech. Wonder if the UAW has ever proposed a fair grant program with a favorable vesting schedule. Maybe a grant that immediately vests quarterly over 3 years, 20% of base salary? Build wealth for your long time employees while increasing the value of the stock.

Hopefully it’s a whole bag of peanuts!

Edit: frankly I’m not sure which I’d take first.
