Better than the age of "never IPO that way our employees can't cash out their shares and leave".

A private company is not prohibited from profit-sharing or giving bonuses based on vested equity.

Non sequitur.

You can both (a) cash out shares and (b) leave without an IPO.

Heck, normally the company itself will buy back the shares. If they don't, they're not bullish on their future and I wouldn't be either.
