yes, that is a better choice. if you can convince them, try to work with them on free times, and weekends even before you officially start as a consultant. one of my current colleagues did that. once he liked the team, he started as consultant, and then eventually became a permanent member of the team. ofcourse you should be able to project it as a win-win situation. the world of appearances may or may not be real, or both may and may not be real - or may be indescribable; or may be real and indescribable, or unreal and indescribable; or in the end may be read and unreal and indescribable - its all Syadvada | ||

started my career in a startup, corp etta untadho just oohinchagalanu, per my preferences, i will take it, and grow or fall with it. career wise there will be a lot potential. financially, it can be risky. i still work 16 hrs a day sometimes, so be ready to drain yourself. i would suggest analysing your preferred lifestyle, and make decisions. not everyone suits for startups, especially after a certain age. it will be pretty draining, and it will be like working round the clock. if you are going only for money into a startup, you might loose motivation after a while. if you think you are suited for the role, think about the rest of the guys, and try to understand their style and passion. group dynamic is a very important factor. many people getting into startups, start as consultants, and then move in to a permanent role, if they like the group. not an easy decision to make the world of appearances may or may not be real, or both may and may not be real - or may be indescribable; or may be real and indescribable, or unreal and indescribable; or in the end may be read and unreal and indescribable - its all Syadvada | ||

i second regarding the work hours. If you are going in some big profile role then it is worth it but going in a some tech guy woud just mean that you wont be able to have meaning ful personal life.
