Joey: Well, one solution is to scale back on option/RSS to employees. I'm not convinced they are good "incentive" anyway.
Well, why not just eliminate both?
Options are useless since the SP is going nowhere. You get an option and five years later they're worth a few bucks more. I'm pretty sure these aren't incentive options so you pay the IT when you get them. Same thing with RSS's. I don't think there are a lot of workers who enjoy paying the IT on something there are not too sure is going to appreciate.
Back in the day, when you got a 15% incentive (gift) at either the beginning or the end of every six months and the SP was moving, you couldn't pour enough money into that deal. Same for options.
Now? I'd want the cash.
