I've been involved in hiring decisions at my current role and have interacted with quite a few engineers who've been at startups for short stints like 3-6 months. I'm a little worried we might onboard someone who won't stick around. We grant a competitive amount of stock, though I think the best way to get people to stay is a good environment for work, and meaningful work to do that feels rewarding.
How much would you weigh brief time at a company on a resume, would it differ if the brief stints were with larger companies?
