I heard that.  Employees need more data to evaluate job offers (especially in this economy where the big guys are offering a lot of cash, and the small guys are offering a lot of cash too but also equity of sometimes dubious value).<p>If you take equity, you are not only subject to dilutions, but also to other investors getting much more preferential terms to you.<p>I&#x27;m not saying to don&#x27;t take a job because of shares, RSUs, or options offered, but one needs to take a hard look at these things to figure out what their true worth is.  And in most cases, you may only be able to compute a confidence interval and not a point estimate.<p>Fidelity&#x27;s disclosure makes this seemingly intractable problem a bit less intractable.
