For an exec, it's a "learning experience." Most startups fail. Take the VC cash, fail, and "learn" on their dime.
For any employee, it's s short stint to list on a resume that will make them less attractive to recruiters for the rest of their careers. "Why were you only at FooBarCorp for Baz months?" (Oh, wonderful - how do I explain without throwing anyone under the bus?)
