Granted $1.2M RSUs: Hold Tight or Diversify?

Hi all,

I wanted to get insights from anyone who has been in a similar situation as me regarding stock options and diversification.

I recently went through my performance review and was granted $1.2M RSUs, which will vest quarterly over the next 4 years. My current company isn’t a startup -it’s a well-established leader in the security space. But also not a traditional player like Palo Alto or F5. While I understand diversification is critical to reducing risk and that past performance doesn’t guarantee future results, I feel optimistic about the company’s prospects under the new leadership and product strategy.

I see the potential for the stock to grow 2–3x in the next 5 years (this is just my personal view, of course).

I’m not looking for guidance on what I should do with my RSUs but wanted to ask if anyone has been in a similar situation - holding a large position in one company due to optimism about its growth - and how it played out for you. Did you stay in for the ride and exit successfully, or did you regret not diversifying earlier?
