Playing negotiation hardball with somebody who is potentially reliant upon you to put a roof over their head and food on the table makes you an asshole. Let's stop pretending that it doesn't.
It's entirely different to negotiating a 20 million dollar exit.
If I'm going to be paid a LOT of money I might consider some of these terms (> $250k), but generally I find anyway that the more the employer pays you the more reasonable they tend to be.
