The Right Startup > The Right Big Company > The Wrong Big Company > The Wrong Startup

  Probability wise, picking the right startup is a crap shot, even people who are expert at it can't do it. Picking the right big company is VERY EASY..., picking the wrong startup is almost assured, 95%+ chance.

    I don't think the working for the "right" startup necessarily means the one that results in a big exit some years down the line... I don't think it's that hard to find a startup founded by cool people doing stuff you find interesting.

      That reminds me, a couple of my former co-worker at Microsoft founded their own startup. Was pretty nifty. I really think government should have a program to fund say 1 million startups, I'll do one myself :)
