I interviewed with a few startups. You likely won’t get a raise in your base (may even be a paycut) if you are joining series A-B, but you can get a good chunk of equity.

Would approach startup opportunities as you would with commercial due diligence. Think about their mkt potential, competitive, customer set, etc. also, if they have a lot of tier 1 VCs (e.g., Sequoia, Greylock, A2Z) as investors, that’s generally a good sign.
