The generous stock bonus is supposed to convince important employees to stay with Apple instead of flirting with one of the many competitors who continuously try to snatch highly qualified software developers and hardware engineers from the Cupertino-based iPhone maker.

Am I in the wrong job ?

If you're really high up in the ladder often your salary is mainly made up of stock bonuses/monetary bonuses/etc. So this isn't be surprising to me.

Nah, I'd rather take cash. They are literally joining you at the hip... this way.

Apple has a history of being pretty hard on its employees. Maybe they sense they were about to lose some people. Gotta imagine this only applies to a very select group.
