I don't see a lot of people arguing that vest and rest at FAANG is going to bring you more money and less stress - in the vast majority of cases - than working in a startup.

It's just that some people would rather have the stress, freedom and excitment that come with working at a startup, rather than completing their OKR to avoid being put on a PIP at the next PSC. Even if that means earning less money - on average.
