Why is the team size more relevant than the equity share when evaluating fairness of 1 day weekends? Since usually full-time workers aren't compensated for overtime, and startup pay is usually low, while founders and investors take the lion's share of an eventual payoff

5 person engineering team is the total size of engineering presence. They mention they don’t want managers till they grow to 20-30 engineers, which makes me believe this is a very small startup and not an established company. It is very usual for employees at companies that size to work more than just 9-5 5 days a week, usually in anticipation of a big eventual payoff.
