Jul 13, 2014 at 14:19 comment added gnasher729 @keshlam: It would be normal that a startup doesn't pay out because they fail. That's the risk you take. What you must avoid is working for a startup that succeeds and you don't get anything out of it because you have nothing in writing.

Mar 23, 2014 at 19:34 comment added OneChillDude @JoeStrazzere definitely not looking to deliver threats. The response was "No updates yet". My goal is to kindly inform my employers that if a decision is not made relatively soon it may be time for me to move on.

Mar 21, 2014 at 22:03 comment added OneChillDude @PaulHiemstra yeah I thought about that, and I came to the conclusion that I stand by what I write, and if they do see it, then that will be the perfect time to start the discussion :D

Mar 21, 2014 at 21:01 comment added corsiKa If nothing else, the lesson here is get it in writing before you start.
Mar 21, 2014 at 20:02 comment added tcrosley "I am not in business to make friends I am in business to make money." You are likely to regret that later on. Never burn your bridges.
Mar 21, 2014 at 19:53 comment added keshlam General observation: A verbal contract is worth the paper it is printed on (nothing) or occasionally the tape it is recorded on (which I presume you don't have.) Frankly, in a startup promises of vesting in the future that aren't backed up with paper are equivalent to Kickstarter rewards -- the folks issuing them may have been entirely honest, and may still have every intent of delivering, but if the company doesn't meet its goals the reward may be delayed or may never be delivered. And remember that revenue stream and profitability are very different things.

Mar 21, 2014 at 18:45 comment added Michael Martinez The OPs question is legitimate. He just wants to know the etiquette for negotiating these type of things. Nothing wrong with that.
