The company raises funds in the form of shares.

Legal analysis: if an enterprise allows employees to become shareholders, they will enjoy the legitimate rights and interests of shareholders, which is legal and does not constitute illegal fund-raising. However, if the boss lets the employee take shares in order to illegally occupy the fund-raising funds of the employee, and the subsequent boss absconds with the funds and brings losses to the employee, this behavior belongs to illegal fund-raising, which constitutes the crime of fraud and bears criminal responsibility.

Legal basis: Article 176 of the Criminal Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), whoever illegally absorbs public deposits or absorbs public deposits in disguised form, thus disrupting the financial order, shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years or criminal detention, and shall also, or shall only, be fined not less than 20,000 yuan but not more than 200,000 yuan, or if there are other serious circumstances, shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than 10 years and shall also be fined not less than 50,000 yuan but not more than 500,000 yuan. If a unit commits the crime mentioned in the preceding paragraph, it shall be fined, and the directly responsible person in charge and other directly responsible personnel shall be punished in accordance with the provisions of the preceding paragraph.
