The standard is to have a 1 year cliff (i.e. 25% of equity vest at 1 year), and then monthly vesting of the remainder (1/36 per month for the next 36 months). NOT yearly vesting after the first year.
The exception is M&A earn out or vesting for key hires, which is often yearly, and sometimes even crazier; 1/2/3/4 where it's 10% the first year, 20% the second, 30% the third, and 40% the fourth.
