the plus side is that you get your foot in the door; the minus side is that it sucks, you won't have any autonomy or creativity, and if twitter never really makes anything happen you are really, really fucked.
that being said, i have a strong intuition that twitter will succeed and this would be a great way to get some equity. but at employee count=25...
- babul 18y agoEven if twitter fails, you will still have a a network of people/friends/contacts and experience that will be invaluable to you. Even at employee #25+, given a significant rise in twitters value, you will still do well (e.g. the first employees at other services such as Amazon/Ebay/Paypal/other, which engaged in alternate or disruptive technology in thier time, did very well). Beside all that, it is much more fun to do things that can fail and walk a differnt path.
