I made some math errors I didn't feel like correcting. anyway...)
I work at a year old startup, 50 employees, pre-IPO (duh!), exit
strategy is to either become profitable company or get bought,

2000/11/17-19 [Industry/Startup] UID:19812 Activity:low | 11/17 What are the implications (URL would be great) of being an officer
of a company? I'm VP Eng of a new startup, and I'm wondering how/why

funding and there's already about 100 employees. What should I
expect in terms of # of shares? What is common? And also, is it
ok for me to ask how many shares outstanding they have? E.g. if
