Definitely work for money and not equity though.
I've worked for 10,000+, <10, and one place that grew from 20->40 while I was there.
In the place that was growing from 20 > 40, I definitely got a sense that things were changing.
You think 200 is the limit where there isn't much difference between 200 and 10,000 ? Or too variable to say? I think over 200, you definitely get to the point where you wouldn't even know who everyone is that you see in the building. Is that why it feels different?
Also, second the thought to always take the money.
