		Swizec on Feb 7, 2016 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: LinkedIn shares drop 40%, erasing $10B of company'... Access to work is about the same as remote with social network in SF. Two reasons why I choose to stay here: 1) building said network so I can go back to proper nomading easier, and 2) access to the startup lottery; nobody gives shares/options to remote workers and/or independent consultants/freelancers Lottery is a nice potential upside with next to zero downside as an engineer

I received equity as part of my remote worker compensation (my entire team is remote though).
