Equity Incentives
Equity incentives are rewards that companies give employees, often in the form of stock or options to buy stock, to align their interests with the company's success. By owning a stake in the company, employees are motivated to work harder and help the company grow, since they directly benefit from increased value. This approach encourages long-term commitment and performance, making employees more invested in the company’s future. Equity incentives are common in startups and growing companies aiming to attract talent without immediate high salaries.
