RSUs?

Well I'm just been offered a job at a rather large internet search company.
Part of the packages are RSUs (Restricted stock units).
Anybody know how these work, what are the tax implications?
I've been told I get xxx Dollars worth over 4 years and am able to take out 25% per year.

    They give you shares, basically, which you can then sell. Often taxed as income at the point of vesting (when the 25% become available to sell each year). Depending on quantity and share price and trajectory can be a good bonus. Probably also part of their long term bonus plans so you may get more over time.
