Hi K***e, Sure thing. At G***s, the COO equity grant is structured as stock options designed to deliver a meaningful ownership stake aligned with the scope of the role. While the final size will be calibrated to your experience and overall package, you can expect: • Grant size: in line with market benchmarks for a COO at a 500-employee sustainable MEP firm (we typically target a mid-to-high fractional percentage of total shares) • Vesting: four-year schedule with a one-year cliff, then monthly vesting thereafter • Change-of-control provisions: standard single-trigger acceleration to protect your interest We’ll finalize the exact percentages and any performance-based tranches during our call. Looking forward to diving into the details Thursday at 11:00 AM CT,I’ll send over a calendar invite shortly. Best, J***e HR Recruiter, StrategyBrain
