I think most tech companies understand the volatility of a startup. I was with a startup for a while until our primary investor cut ties and left us with 35 salaries, a lease and plenty of network and utility bills to pay with barely a few thousand a month income from clients. It was a disaster and the subsequent company I ended up working for cared little about the details. All I had to tell them was "it was a startup". They nodded and continued with the interview. Three years later, I'm still happy to be with them. There's plenty of startups around if that's your thing...but in the end you should be happy when you hit the sack at night.
