[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is always a bull market somewhere.  My kid is an ML engineer and constantly trying to get poached.

Yeah getting hit up on linkedin bots to join a startup for a 20% reduction in pay isn't exactly poaching.  Actually, if you think of yourself as poachable you're already doing the economy wrong, as if you're owned by somebody.[/quote]

I joined a start up with a 50 percent pay cut. I got a lot of RSUs and left after two years and had a lot of great experience. In end not public yet But my stock is worth the difference. would have stayed longer but need more base. But if Single I would have stayed. It was cool, hip, learning like crazy and would have stayed four years to fully vest. [/quote]

If that's true I'm really happy for you.  Your experience is rare unfortunately.[/quote]

What's rare?  Clearly, all the people that took a chance on Google, Meta, Amazon and hundreds of other companies that were acquired or also went public made out very well.  Now it's Anthropic, Scale, robotics start-ups, etc.

Start-ups are inherently risky, though even ones with strong backers that fail are usually good launching pads for people.
