I do not know whether it is right place to ask this question.
My company, say an example like CSCO (not exactly correct one, but established like CSCO), provides me following that I need to decide.
Offer is 400 RSU vesting in next four years
or
2000 stock options vesting in next four years
I understand RSU means that I am getting at zero (buy price) at vesting time. Say after one year I vest 100 RSU and the amount I get is (if stock price is $35 at that time from current $31), I get $3500
Stock options, mainly I get the delta gain. Supposing company goes up $5 at the vesting time, I get 500 (one year vesting) x 5 = $2500
Looks like they have give RSU vs Stock option at 1:4 range.
Which is better to accept? How can I evaluate?
BTW: My actual company stock price is $45.92 today(not CSCO) and it is YTD appreciation is almost 20%, well established company market cap above 150B.
