No stock or equity?

Been with same employer for 5 years and a good performer. SMB OTE $120K. This is my first sales job.

We are private and now being acquired by a bigger tech company backed by Private Equity.

Other than standard 401k (3% match) I have never had RSU or ESPP. I assume will continue with new parent.

I see you all making a killing $$$ at Startups and publicly traded BigTech and such.

Am I “wasting my potential” by staying (assuming am not laid off)?

I am comfortable here and like our culture and product. My internal brand and network is strong. Always was annoyed lacking stock options but really believed in what we do for my clients.

With the new acquisition likely making drastic changes, makes me think I should start applying….

Is PE as bad as they say?

Go for startup or public company?

Thoughts?
