Hey Everybody,

Just wanted anybody opinions whose worked for a start up company. I had an interview today with a start up company for a Network Security Engineer. The company opened its doors on August 1st and as of now, has about 10 employees. I think it would be a good opportunity but the idea of leaving a more well established company and working for a small start up is kind of scary to say the least.

    Do your market research. As long as you are in a good market, I wouldn't worry too much. I've always wanted to work at a start up, but sadly never got the chance. One of my managers was at a start up that ultimately went public and said it was a ton of fun. Good luck!

    Is the pay better ? Do you get to do challenging technical work ? Do you see a potential for growth as a professional ? Is that start up company doing well (stability)?
