Pros
Come Diwali, a faint buzz was felt on the work floor. Something was about to happen. In the town hall that followed, cat was out of the bag. MD Nitin announced rollout of the Employee Stock Option Plan (ESOP) to everyone's pleasent surprise. Deservingly, a dozen employees, about one fourth of current staff strength, across all levels - from junior most to top rung - were announced receiving (obviously undisclosed number) of ESOPs.
In the Indian Digital Agency world, Asymmetrique probably moved the cheese first on employees' participation in management.
By stepping into the ESOP era, company has thrown a big challenge to its employees - stay put...do well...and this deferred reward could come your way.
Here's to creating wealth. Opportunity to unlock your future.
Cons
Only growth, no downsides ahead.
