This is why I found my own companies instead of joining startups. I don't mind financial or business risk, but I do mind risking my time on behalf of someone else.
I think it's reasonable for a startup founder to get rich off of the efforts of employees, provided he treats them well and offers pay comparable to the amount of work expected.
However, if an employee is supposed to work 60+ hour weeks because "we're in a startup," then I have a serious problem.
Given I have 60/hours a week to work, I can work at big company for 40 of them (same salary) and spend 20 on my own business.
