ParticipantBack in the day, when I had a decent ESPP, I learned from experience to SELL and SELL immediately. In the final few years I would even sell short a few days before the distribution so as to hedge my position. Some people got burned by delays in having their accounts credited; meanwhile the stock tanked and they lost out.
Holding out for LTCG treatment is a fools errand if the stock is too risky an investment.
SELL SELL SELL. You’ve already invested you life there; time to diversify.

ParticipantMarion, you are clearly the high maintenance type. I’m thinking you might benefit by trying something completely different in your life, like volunteering for Habitat for Humanity.
Good luck with the mice.
