Yeah I have worked at startup companies, twice, from beginning through 12 years, it's been my career so far, and honestly I like seeing the progression and jump out when it gets too established and bureaucratic and inflexible. Those long hours at the beginning usually do come with some flexibility, and figuring out things and fixing problems, implementing new systems (I am an accountant) is good and interesting work. I guess I got lucky both times since they didn't go under, one got sold and this one is starting to get too corporate.
