I don’t understand. In fast moving small companies (<150) employees this sounds absurd. Are you talking about different companies?

Can you maybe give me an example, or something concrete to root your statement in?

I misspoke and used cliff as the length of the grant instead of when it started vesting. Short cliffs are good, some companies are starting to vest equity grants immediately. I haven't heard of a two year cliff.

Some companies are also doing one year grants instead of four year grants, like Stripe. That's costing employees a lot of money.

Got it, we are very much on the same page.
