SummaryTraditionally, stock option plans have been used as a way for companies to reward top management and "key" employees and link their interests with those of the company and other shareholders. More and more companies, however, now consider all of their employees as "key." As a result, there has been an increase in the popularity of broad-based stock option plans, particularly since the late 1980s. Publicly traded companies such as Pepsico, Starbucks, Southwest Airlines, and Cisco now give stock options to most or all of their employees.
