No, it’s not like this. Most startups promise to be dynamic as a tactic to pay people less and swindle them on poor options deals, then they bait and switch you, the work experience is not as advertised.

Startups are by definition 'dynamic'.

If you are going to a startup and doing a very rote, repetitive thing, then you're not very lucky, but most startup jobs are definitely not that.

The risk is that there is 'too much dynamism' and people and up spinning their wheels, over pivoting, crashing. But that's definitely 'dynamic'.
