If you want upside, you can get paid almost entirely in options. The upside is huge.

Sure, but options are not RSUs. Shopifys system is little different than all cash and an employee stock purchase plan. For better or worse.

Then you can also get paid in stock. Like, the system lets you pick between cash, options, RSUs. Whichever is your favourite, take it.
