Working in a "Startup Company" is a risky decision to take. It can enrich your mind with new and innovative ideas and situations to handle, but less load on pocket.

Every startup have a risk to be taken, whether "small" or "BIG".
Other risk include job stability / security as about 3 out of 4 startup fails in about 3 years.
The pay is low as compared to large companies, limited or no benefits. More work load, less personal time. But, the other side is you learn a lot over time. The high stressed environment helps to spawn creativity and motivate the person as whole. Some prefer working in a corporate with stable job and high pay. But, some prefer startup where learning is more important.

"Startup have both their Pros and Cons

Pros :
The "PROS" mainly includes Knowledge, Skills and Experience.
Working in a startup need more skills than required for the job, as employer requires you to do much "more than you are hired for". This is where you learn and increase your skill set, which in turn increase your intellectual and knowledge borders. On the other hand corporates limit your work load, hence you are doing limited sets of task, whereas startup need you to perform tasks outside your skills.
So, the rate of learning is increased 2-4 folds. Letting you to learn more things more quickly. As the team is small you are a major part of the company, so you contribute a major part to companies "Success" and "Failure" also. Your presence is very much appreciated in the company. So, the job satisfaction is much more as compared to corporates.

Cons :
The main "CONS" are High work load, Less Job security, Low Pay.
Most peoples prefer corporates for high pay, where the work load is less as compared to startups but the pay is comparatively high. People looking for a settled life and career, must not be choosing a startup.
Basically, you learn more but earn less. Many times, coming early, working late and may be work from home is needed, which may not be acceptable by many.

So entirely, startup is a place for peoples looking for an interesting work atmosphere where the main goal is learning and not earning. The short time but more experience can help you find your another "Interesting Next Job". Startup commonly have small team, less pay, long work hours, informal environment and one goal. The choice depend on you, whether a Large Company or Startup, "Learning Never Stops and Never Should You".
