In terms of compensation, how well do Airbnb/top unicorns fair relative to the Big 4 for new grads? I've heard from some that some unicorns offer higher TC than Big 4 with the caveat of less liquidity. However from what I've been reading here it seems that many recommend to go to Google/Facebook if you want to maximize compensation.
I mean go for the unicorn for 1,2 years, and if business is not good, then move to big 4.
It depends on the company and how competitive your offers are. The closer the company is to going public, the more inline they're gonna be with the big 4. Some people recommend going to G/FB because you get liquidity right away. On top of that, most public companies have had significant stock upside over the last year or so.
Facebook Google and Amazon have all had incredible stock upside over the last year.
What are the next generation of Facebook and Google companies?
