This is the reason why shares continue to plummet. Give arbitrary people stocks despite the company revenue going down, share value goes down. This is basic supply and demand. How is this not common knowledge?
Some people are/were awarded shares, but it's not overly common and it's deliberately kept quiet.
Good idea. Then I could be losing money not only because of decreasing purchasing power of my salary, but also because of shares crashing.
Good idea. They can always pay you in stock options which are worth nothing by the time they hit your account.
