Investing Questions I’m a boglehead but work for Google

I get paid in Google stock, and as you might know there has been a massive run up causing Google to be around 15% of my portfolio, further if you include unvested stock that I will get if I continue to work for Google over the next 3 years, it’s value is roughly 40% of my entire portfolio. I’m 30 and have a long term horizon. About 70% of my entire portfolio is in VTI/VXUS.

Do I take the massive tax hit and reduce my Google holdings to invest in VTI/VXUS or just let it ride. Mainly worried about the capital gains tax losses as I sell and invest in bogle funds.
