Certainly a lot of start-ups take advantage of engineers, I was more making the case that Box isn't really a start-up so I wouldn't expect them to have a big upside on IPO.

There are some specific reasons to join a start-up, and hitting the unicorn lottery shouldn't be one of them. Also, you should be taking a market salary and working sane hours, which seems to be more the case in the last 2-3 years, though YMMV.
