Restricted Stock Units

Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) are a form of compensation given to employees, representing shares of the company's stock that are granted but not owned outright until certain conditions are met, typically time-based vesting or performance goals. Once vested, the employee owns the shares and can sell them, subject to company policies and market conditions. RSUs align employee interests with company performance, as their value increases if the company does well. They are often used to attract and retain talent while incentivizing employees to contribute to the company's long-term success.
