RSU
At Lyft, RSUs are subject to a 1-year vesting schedule:
100% vests in the 1st-year (25.00% quarterly)
Alternatively, Lyft has now begun issuing single year vesting schedules with no cliff. Candidates receive a grant for their first year vesting every 3 months, and upon yearly evaluation receive grants for subsequent years. The pros are protection from the stock price declining, the cons being that you may see limited upside from stock growth.
