I have to admit that I don't really understand the spirit of some of the commenters here that feel that the rank and file employees were wronged. Every year my company has to decide how much bonus and equity to give me, if any, and I have to decide if I want to continue to work for them. If the work is interesting, my skills are growing, and the compensation is adequate, then I'll probably continue to stick around. If other companies offer me a sufficiently better gig then I'll leave.
