A lot of comments are complaining about the comp and the cons of a startup, I think when you join a startup you are basically making a decision that is risky and challenging in the first place especially if its a no name startup and the comp is really just part of the risk you acknowledge. The real pro of joining an early stage startup (note: not a famous one with billions in the bank) is really I would say the satisfaction of being in a life-changing startup and grinding with a team, ultimately its really the developer experience you're going for. (Otherwise if its a unicorn, you're probably going for brand recognition, flexibility and comp)
