I have mostly seen people getting what they were getting in cash+stock in big company as cash in a startup or a little bit less. As someone who has worked in companies of all the sizes, this post is not only incorrect but also written with a intention. The only thing that's true is working in average startup is quite worse than working in average big company. But even then, it definitely becomes clear in a year or two and you can leave it. On a long enough horizon, it doesn't matter if you get bit less earning for a year.
