I'd only be willing to put in long hours for little pay at a startup if they agreed to give me shares in the company when I left.
Yeah they talk about equity but were they offering it to this position?
Also, fuck that dude regardless.
I worked at a startup for a couple of years in the '90s. The equity was "we'll take care of you". Spoiler: they did not take care of me.
That's literally not equity (which I think is your point).
That was literally my point.
That is always the case, you get a very generous part of the equity, which at that time is worth nothing, with the hope that in a number of years you can cash out and move from a dingy basement to a tropical island.
If they don't offer a this very generous equity, run away immediately.
