I suggest you speak to ex employees of the startup. You also need to be prepared to be laid off within 2-3 months in case you don't perform to their expectations. I'd suggest you keep a backup at EY if you do join them. EY is a good name, make sure you DO NOT burn any bridges.

I would look at it from a risk appetite point of view, how much risk are you willing to take given your current situation?

I would also recommend to think if you have enough savings with which you can sustain living expenses for 1 year at least without a job and most importantly do you have emergency cash or insurance aside from savings for unexepcted emergencies

If you are quite secured financially, I don’t see a reason why you shouldn’t take the risk, provided you are willing to.

Not all startups fail, most fail but not all and no giant corporations think about you or your personal situation before laying off, they all want to please their investors and board members at the end of the day while giving you 2000 INR Swiggy or Zomato coupon every year end to please you and motivate you to work 10x harder instead of the correct recognitions.

Given the job details, looks like you might have to work a lot harder or might even be willing to work extended hours as well

So it’s your call, important thing is to never regret whatever happens, anyways congratulations on the offer and good luck buddy!
