This survey, discussed by Corey Rosen of NCEO, focuses on which employee groups get what kind of equity and how much; as well as key administrative practices.

Corey Rosen from NCEO discusses an overview of the results of a recent survey on Private Company Equity Compensation.  This survey is one of the very few surveys of equity compensation in closely held companies including more than just “pre-IPO” companies, certain industries, or just the clients of providers.  Its results have been verified as representative of the larger sample of private, entrepreneurial companies with equity plans.
