Sad but true in one aspect, but another is it's useful for additional practical learning and opportunity discovery working for a megacorp for a few years. Stanford is (or was, last I checked) an exception though: extremely entrepreneurial PIs, staff, grad students, and undergrads.
At UT Austin a couple of times talking to a startup club dude, he was having trouble gathering interest on the Yellow Brick Road. I suggested he improve his advertising and marketing graphics, lead with thought-provoking questions and elevator convo about financial security and regret, and consider broadcast mechanisms on social media.
I think it's also younger generations aren't supported and encouraged appropriately to take risks, to view discomfort and fear as temporary obstacles to be sought, and are sold traditional dogma that "working as an employee equals financial security".
Unavoidable microeconomic law: You're never going to get anywhere near rich working for someone else without substantial equity.
