It's a frequent occurrence for an employee to receive stock options at $5/share for example, and when the stock rises to $7/share, he exercises the options then immediately sells.
That may be possible, after all the comnpany is trying to give them an incentive and only a small percentage would sell immediately. However, more likely there will be a minimum holding period. Ask your HR dept.
That does sound like a good deal if it's available even if there's a lockup contract in there.
So to the employees that recieve 15% off of stock,
If they purchase stock can't they sell it back and earn free money?
Is it a hassle purchasing stock?
What do you need to purchase it?
