Depends on your age, here is why: I've been in startup most of my 20s and early 30s. The amount of learning, growth, potential and responsibility is amazing. you simply will not have it elsewhere. you will have tons of impact. when i got married and had kids i couldn't take these risks anymore, i needed a stable working place with good WLB. now i'm making more money, using the experience i had in startups working for a FAANG company.
