Did you have previous experience in a similar stage company?
I had a lot and I'm almost feeling like "I've been through this stuff before" and that demotivates me. But I will accept the argument that learning (by teaching) never stops.
I do like the team. The product? well, it's challenging but I'm not using it. I don't have stuff (at least technical) to learn unless they decide that we need to start moving quickly and not be stuck in legacy code. They started doing microservices with 0% testing and I'm still trying to teach them about contract-driven APIs
I'd say it really depends on your situation - do you like the product? Do you like the team? Do you have stuff to learn? And most importantly, are they willing to let you take the lead instead of backstabbing you?
