The funny thing about cash is that you can use it to buy equity. Who knows, maybe you’ll even learn to diversify by investing in areas uncorrelated to your line of work
I _thought_ Netflix comps with a cash salary and if that’s the case it’s worth less than equity. The salary depreciated over the course of 2020 while an equity grant would have appreciated from the start.
Would cash+equity comp still be preferable to an all cash Netflix comp in that case?
I guess the gist of my question is:
Non-Netflix FAANG level company salary + stock without appreciation >= Netflix all-cash salary?
