it's technically not vesting (my founder shares were fully vested on acquisition) - more of a hold back. we made sure to negotiate this term in.
doesn't work that way for employees unfortunately.

The acquirer means well, but as a public company there is little intellectual honesty and projects are going off the cliff while my fellow executives not sharing the truth of how bad things are going and asking for help from one another for the good of the company. I'm increasingly demotivated having to deal with lying and intellectual dishonesty at every turn.
I can quit, but then I lose out on almost a million bucks that's unvested, not much compared to what I've made so far but I'd really like to just be fired (without cause) and get to walk away and start a non-profit.
