问HN：我应该起诉我的前雇主吗？
像许多初创公司的员工一样，我被困在等待我的前雇主上市的状态中，而在这个时代，这可能会持续很久。员工友好的公司会在收购要约中包括前员工，但我的公司并没有这样做。
我想知道，创始人在不向所有股东提供同样机会的情况下拿走资金的合法性是否曾经受到过检验？这似乎是一个明显的案例，显示出控制股东在牺牲少数股东利益的情况下做出对自己有利的决策。
我并不想卷入法律诉讼，但我认为目前的状况非常有害，行业领导者需要对此采取行动。在一个公司可以无限期保持私有的世界里，员工不应该依赖于他们（可能是前）雇主的善意来获得流动性。我在HN上发布这个，因为如果有人能够在这里建立规范，那就是YC的领导层。

Like many startup employees these days, I'm stuck waiting for my ex-employer to IPO, which in this era could be pretty much forever. Employee friendly companies include ex-employees in tender offers but mine does not.<p>What I'm wondering is, has the legality of founders taking money off the table while not extending the same opportunity to all shareholders ever been tested? It seems like a clear case of making decisions that personally benefit controlling shareholders at the expense of minority shareholders.<p>I don't really want to get involved in legal action but I think the current state of affairs is really toxic and industry leaders need to do something about it. In a world where companies can stay private indefinitely, employees should not need to rely on the charity of their (possibly ex) employer to get access to liquidity. Posting this on HN because if anyone is well positioned to create the norms here, it's YC leadership.
