Equity compensation works for the CEO, where he has a notable and direct influence on the share price (whether that is a GOOD thing is another question).
For normal employees, it's just a form of pay with extra hoops. I suspect much of these started with ways to get "around" cash flow requirements, etc, but now the accounting rules have caught up and it's not really worth it anymore, for anyone.
