Question about RSUs. Let's say I got RSUs off 100K that vest over 4 years. I'm currently thinking of this as an extended sign on bonus. Do companies typically issue additional RSUs after all the initial RSUs are vested or are they typically reserved for new hires?

Varies wildly by company, level, role. The classic 'rest and vest's RSUs are a one time thing. Some companies issue RSUs as part of yearly comp. You're going to have to ask your recruiter.

Depends on company. Many give out refresher grants every year so your comp increases but you will still have a cliff at year 4 unless you get promoted.

Slalom1 is spot on - it depends and varies widely.

As an example, in my new role, I didn’t get any sign on RSUs (did get a bonus tho), but get ~50k a year that vest over 4.

like

That’s not the right way to think about it. It is your comp, which maybe significantly high or low or stay the same when they vest. Just because it’s not cash, doesn’t make it bonus. Unless they told you it’s sign on bonus. If it is, then I’m not sure why you are expecting a repeat of sign on bonus.

In most cases it is your TC. You may get refreshers to keep your target TC at the right level after 4 years.

When I joined my current company I was like like 150k over 4 years. I then got a tiny 10k refresher my first year during performance cycle. This year I’m getting promoted so I should be getting a larger refresh (30-50k) plus performance (10-15k).

like

Yes I get RSU refreshers each year at about 25-30% of initial amount which also best vest over 4 years

When I was hired, I don't recall being informed about my salary being tied to my location. My employment contract also only makes one mention of location, and says "home office" and my state. I was recently told by HR though that if I move, my comp. will be lower. Is this legal? Should I consult a labor lawyer?

In my mind, I don't recall being told this and it's not clear from my employment contract, so I feel like they're breaking our agreement, and it feels unfair.
