I agree. I was rejected not too long ago by a startup with a reason that they thought I belonged in a more corporate environment (I never indicated so). In my experience if a company really needs someone they are much more receptive, otherwise they just come up with a BS like that and worse.

That's a pretty generous grant, not everyone can be Employee #2.


Or a technical co-founder.
