I agree with the lottery analogy. But in this instance, the lottery ticket kind of hit? There's an exit event happening, people are getting paid. All of the money that employees paid to exercise their options is literally going to pay out executive bonuses.

Wouldn't it benefit the founders more in the long term to make good with their employees for the benefit of working with them in future endeavours? I guess when you're getting a 7 figure payout, it doesn't matter because you can just retire?
