My company is in the process of merging with another company and I received a letter urging me to sell the stock options. This is only my 2nd job out of college, I&#x27;ve never gone through anything like this.<p>The price they are offering is only a few cents higher than the original strike price, doesn&#x27;t seem like it would even be worth it to exercise them.<p>That was the only option they offered me. Are there more? They&#x27;ve talked about IPO for quite some time now, but they went the merger route. Am I just out of luck now?<p>I realized that options aren&#x27;t a guaranteed payday, but this has left a sour taste in my mouth after all the big talk from my original employer.
