Choose a startup where:
- People regularly take vacation time.
- They're happy to hear that you care about work/life balance and will not work more than 40 hours a week except in emergencies.
- You're not strongly invested in whether the company experiences long-term success.

- You don't have to go on-call. (For many, this can be quite stressful.)
