No question this guy is a tool, he's posting on LinkedIn. However, he's not wrong about startups being a bad fit for anyone looking for work-life balance. You're literally trying to build a business from scratch as fast as possible before the seed money runs out, and your compensation is usually more equity than salary. No time for anything but work in that scenario, or no one gets paid.
