Yes - people like to win. If the product succeeds, and the start-up is racing upwards, people will forgive a lot of other things. I think on work/life balance, there are populations who care about this, and populations who don't. And this changes over time. When I was younger I was happy to throw my whole life into tough projects. Now that I have a family it's tougher to go "All in" with projects.
