The Corporate Incentive Plan financial and strategic objective metrics are set and assessed annually by our Board of Directors Compensation Committee.
- To promote an ownership mentality among employees and to allow them to share in Lattice’s success, we offer Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) shares to employees annually. In 2022, Lattice enhanced the participation rate in this program, from approximately 70% of employees, to more than 90% of employees receiving RSUs annually.

We also offer tuition reimbursement benefits as a part of our total compensation package.
- As part of our efforts to support our workforce during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond, we adopted a hybrid workforce plan, which mixes in-office and remote work to offer flexibility and support to our employees. We believe that this approach allows our employees to enjoy more autonomy and better work-life balance – and are more engaged as a result.
