Another good one: What share class are my options, and are they the same share class as the founders?
As an employee you won't have a ton of insight into things like dilution or liquidation prefs as the company raises more money. Knowing you have the same share class as founders is a good way to ensure there is someone on the board is looking out for your share class.
Agree. I'd say this question shouldn't be the one to weigh the decision.
Safer assumption: regardless of number of shares/options given or class of these - assume the value of these are $0 (unless these are RSU grants of publicly traded company).
