Recently, I have been contacted by many people about restricted stock units (RSUs) inquiring what they should do before the year-end. For example, if you work at companies like Apple, Intel Corporation, Google, Microsoft, Salesforce, Walmart, Airbnb, Uber, Lyft, etc, they tend to compensate their employees by offering them RSUs as a bonus. I created a comprehensive educational video on this very topic to help people better understand their RSUs and strategies to consider when dealing with RSUs. I hope you find this helpful and please reach out to me if you have any questions.
