Amazon sues former AWS VP over non-compete deal
worst is the 2 year cliff vesting of stocks. essentially you need to survive 2 brutal reviews before you see any of that money.

I don't get this criticism of Amazon. They give cash-based bonuses in the first 2 years, and then after that the cash bonuses transition to equivalent amount of stock grants. If you really want Amazon stock you're free to buy it with the cash bonus.

Actually not even 2. You'd need to do 3 years for a reasonable amount of those stocks to vest.
