Isn't that just Accenture lol

OW

Free 15%-ish on return plus gains. 6 years maxing it out and returns have been solid. No complaints

I don’t believe we use stock options anymore. We do grant RSUs to some senior managers and MDs as part of a bonus or promotion. They typically vest over a multi year period. What are you trying to understand experience wise?

RSU at SM is $18,000 a year, eligible.
Vests 1/3 over 3yr period.

Not sure any consulting firms provide true options but we do have an ESPP program, which A1 is talking about above, where we can allocate 10% of our paycheck to a pool which is used to purchase stock at a 15% discount biannually. Mathematically it’s an additional 1.5% of base, which isn’t much, but free money is nice for setting aside (forcefully saving) 10% a year. I can’t complain, provides me another avenue to save a large amount while still being semi liquid compared to retirement investment vehicles
