My personal preference only: I'm glad my current employer has no equity compensation altogether; just base salary and bonus. My former employer did have RSUs, but they have an auto-sell program that I utilized every year.
In college the computer science department had an extracurricular talk about finances for a software engineer; the invited speaker was very adamant that holding most of your net worth in a company that employs you was an unacceptable concentration risk. I remembered that to this day.
