My advice is not to try and time the market. If you think it makes sense as a long term investment then do it. If you’re only trying to cash out within the minimum possible window, don’t.

will provide a 25% matching restricted stock grant to those who elect to participate. Employees must hold all shares they purchase for a minimum of 6 months and must remain continuously employed with for one year.

Their stock is down 10% in the last year but up 10% in the last 5.

At my company we buy at a 15% discount from the lowest price in a quarter, so it’s generally free money

Can you sell right away? Or is there a waiting period?

Gotcha, thanks!

Today for the first time in my career 10+ I gave up. I didn’t quit my job, but I gave up on it. This is certainly not inline with my personal brand, and now has me questioning if I need a “rebrand”. Never had to do that before, my brand professionally and personally was just always my authentic self, I never had to put thought against building (or rebuilding) it. Any tips?
