You can always come back to Google and enjoy a good WLB. Go to Two Sigma and hustle for a couple of years, it might give you more $$$ and you’ll realize how the tech at a tech company is way more interesting than the tech at a financial company. After that, you won’t look back.

No there are many tech guys who would like to start a career in finance. It’ll be dull to spend rest of your life being software engineer.

How do you feel about the teams at both places and the different locations?

My advice would be to join Two Sigma. As a previous post mentioned, you can always go back to Google. Two Sigma, in my opinion, is much more selective and will give you the opportunity to learn much more. I worked at Google CA, it was good but I have become a better engineer since joining TS. From first hand experience, work life balance is great here as well.. also, the Bay Area is very overrated. New York is a much better place IMO :)
