I am engineer #2. I have few solid reasons to leave a job where I am currently working for.<p>- Company culture is falling apart (Boss is not treating everyone the same thus some people are really unhappy)
 - Money (I am getting early-stage startup salary and am confident I can earn more elsewhere)
 - No chance to grow (at least not now)
 - I am a bit skeptical of product overall<p>Boss announced we&#x27;ll receive small investment to expand our product and to start monetizing it. He also said bigger investitions will probably follow. He wants to discuss equity with me, but I do not really trust him (based on what I heard from other employees). And since I am unexpirienced with equity &#x2F; startup vesting and really young I have a feeling he will try to trick me with equity to work for low salary.<p>I am afraid that I may miss a big opportunity here and on the other hand I am afraid I will be underpaid.<p>Should I stick here for a few months to see what happens or should I move on?<p>Throwaway for obvious reasons.
Thanks HN!
Ask HN: Is it wrong to leave startup just before first outside investment?
