A recruiter recently emailed me about a startup whose “Series A was backed by Khosla” like it was a good thing! I actually replied to him that this is a show stopper to me. Few years ago I did not join Theranos after looking at their board.
Do the “right” thing - especially here in the valley, if you work in tech you have a lot of choices

Based on your track record, I fully expect an update to come out where it turns out this Khosla guy's 89 acre property doesn't actually exist, it was actually 8.9 acres magnified with an extremely elaborate mechanism of smoke and mirrors.
My brother applied for jobs at Theranos several times--he was in the biomedical engineering area--but somehow it never worked out (once they apparently lost his application, another time they cancelled an interview at the last minute, etc.).
