    I’ve been working in software development in WA state for about 25 years. I haven’t been paid (even partially) in stock since the mid 2000s.

      It’s the bigger ones that tend to pay in stock. The googles, facebooks, Microsoft, and startups.

      I’ve also been in software development for 20 years at various places in the country and I know a bunch of folks who get paid in stock.
