You can choose to have a gap or failure on your résumé. Either makes you unemployable at the types of banks or consultancies considered "safe" in the article, unless you have some sort of remarkable pedigree or network. That type of résumé is accepted at less prestigious consultancies/staffing agencies, but the pay is on a lower level.

Either makes you unemployable at the types of banks or consultancies considered "safe" in the article, unless you have some sort of remarkable pedigree or network. This is all anecdotal but... You won't be unemployable because you ran a company and it failed. You may however be because you had "founder responsibilities" and then try to fall back into engineering roles after 5 years of running a startup.
