Reality is: these guys are early stage, and they need to do whatever it takes to ship and find their feet. They cannot afford to work less as a team - it will not slow down. So, 2 options: IF you believe in the team and the market and are convinced that this is worth slogging for 2-3 years, then negotiate a better equity deal. Tell them you want all in and are willing to work your ass off, but you need more upside than just an "engineer cut". If the company hasn't raised money yet you're equivalent to a founder. Make a deal. IF not, i.e if you don't believe in them 100% or are not in a position to work your ass off, then quit. Find a job that offers good salary and work life balance. A growth stage startup, or a large company if you're up for it... Hope this helps. |
