Moses' attempt at liberating his people from slavery (including killing an Egyptian) further incurred Pharaoh's wrath and Moses had to flee when his own people condemned his action in their defence. He was eventually called while in exile to return to Egypt for the purpose of leading his people out of slavery and hence became their leader for the next few years.
Joseph was rejected and despised by his jealous brothers and they sold him off into slavery.
