A guy on Reddit who works for Amazon broke down his situation. He has been there 3 years. He started out at $12/hr and is now at $14/hr. His monthly bonus was around $200 and in those 3 years he has gotten 5 shares of stock. Now the stock options will be gone and he loses the bonuses, but he gets a raise to $15. So he makes roughly $2,000 more a year in salary but will lose about $2400 in bonus about about $2000 in stock each year. This "raise" will end up costing him about $2400 a year plus whatever the stock would bring in the future.
