It depends on the company that you'll be applying at. Before my own company was making enough to cover my bills I had to go back to a regular job and most of my experience at that time was either at my own startup or at others. I had some companies only offer me junior salaries because they didn't consider my experience at startups - it didn't count in their books. However, there were plenty of other companies that valued my background and that's where I found a home until I could go full-time with my own company (I decided to bootstrap). The company I joined wasn't a startup. Not all companies will value your background but the ones that do will pay you well. You'll need to interview around and don't be frustrated if the first place you apply to dismisses your startup background.
