1. Single stock exposure

  • If the stock price drops, your wealth takes a hit.

  • You already have a lot riding on your employer.

  • A balanced approach can help you capture gains and secure your future.

2. How they’re taxed

  • Some shares are withheld for taxes - though that might not be enough.

  • The value of your vested RSUs is taxed as ordinary income, even if you don’t sell.

  • Selling right away may have no additional tax impact.

3. Common mistakes

  • Hold too much employer stock.

  • Save too little for taxes.

  • Miss out on better opportunities.
