Definitely isn't a recruiting tool or an ad - in fact I don't even really go into the details of the plan when I do my recruiting because most employees don't really know the difference at that point. If it was an ad it certainly wasn't effective as nobody has contacted me :p.
I'm curious what advantages options give employees over a system like ours. I don't see any, and the whole point of our structure was to give employees lower risk and more comfort that they actually owned equity, not a promise of it.

It's not that options beat your system, it's that options are what's available and the point of this article is: do the math and understand your equity.

Right, and my point is that options aren't the only thing possible.
There's no doubt that you've created a generous plan for your team. The description of your plan was certainly helpful and illuminating. But this thread seems like an odd place for a recruiting ad.
