Linear completed its first tender offer during its Series C funding, allowing current and former employees to sell a portion of their vested options at a $1.25 billion valuation. This initiative is part of Linear's employee-friendly equity program, which includes a 10-year extended exercise window, early exercise options, and transparent business performance communication. The tender offer provides liquidity, enabling employees to realize some of their ownership value while retaining the majority for future appreciation. Linear's strategy, termed "Linear Infinity," aims to encourage long-term employee retention by addressing changing personal needs, offering paid time off, and providing equity refreshers. The company has grown sustainably with a focus on maintaining a small, dedicated team and hopes to foster long-term contributions from its employees. Linear celebrates this milestone and extends gratitude to both current team members and alumni, inviting interested individuals to join their mission of building the future of software.
