Which is insufficient to value the offer.<p>I want there to be an offer letter plus other materials which explain it.  It&#x27;s meaningless to say something like &quot;12000 shares of stock, vesting over 4 years.&quot;  That may be the legally binding part, but there should be an appendix or model which shows what that actually means.<p>The problem with making that a separate unsigned&#x2F;etc. document is it isn&#x27;t legally binding in the same way an offer letter is.<p>There&#x27;s additionally the insanity around &quot;stock options must be approved by the board at the next meeting after you&#x27;re hired&quot;, which could be a quarter.  That seems stupid.  There should be some cleaner way to handle that.
