Blue Origin revamps equity plan to rival SpaceX, adds 'golden handcuffs'

Blue Origin is implementing a new employee equity plan, including more generous stock options, to better compete for talent with SpaceX. This initiative follows internal dissatisfaction with previous plans that offered little value to employees. However, the new plan includes a restrictive clause requiring employees to forfeit their stock options if they join a competitor within 18 months of leaving, a provision some experts liken to a non-compete agreement.
