Don't know how long choices such as this will be available.

When I worked in Oak Ridge in the 70s and 80s we had our SSNs stenciled on the back of our lab coats.
I've interviewed and hired hundreds of talented technical people and would look favorably on a candidate that said they had concerns on the financial viability of the company, and that the viability concerns were not related to anything they could influence, such as product or service quality, and so leaving was the best option.
