Stock grants are taxed as regular income.
Edit: downvotes from people who have no idea how stock, compensation, or taxes work, apparently.

Yeah people don’t seem to understand taxes wrt stock at all. RSUs are definitely taxed!
Only thing I can think of is they’re thinking of options? Afaik those can be advantageous, tax-wise, because you are taxed when you exercise, not when they’re granted or when they vest (this is my understanding — I could be wrong).

I thought founders usually get all their shares upon founding the company when it’s worth next to nothing. Is that not how it works?
