Were you close to vest your stock options?

My next vest would have been this month. My severance amount was more than my 6 month 20% vest.

I was still on my initial 5/15/40/40 initial offer.

For people who don’t know, Amazon’s offers are based on total compensation target with a schedule of:

- year 1 - base + large prorated signing bonus + 5% vest

- year 2 - base + smaller signing bonus + 15% base

- year 3 and 4 - 20% vest every six months + base.

I had two vesting periods left.
