As HBR says : 

You Will Get to Experience a Different Company Culture

If you decide to take a job at a newly-founded company, you’ll find out first-hand that startup culture is different than corporate culture. Whether you’re looking for a change, or haven’t liked the more rigid nature of a traditional corporate office, it could be a great opportunity to experience a different kind of work environment.

You may find that you’re more suited to startup culture if you love a fast-paced, ever-changing workplace and don’t shy away from responsibility. However, a more traditional corporate culture might be a better fit if you value work-life balance, or prioritize compensation over passion. It’s important to assess both your personal and professional goals and weigh the pros and cons of each to determine which environment is best for you.
