1 month later another offer

Got an enticing offer from a listed company (B) with growth path potential, interviewed only recently while on 1 month with another company (A) that plans to go IPO soon. Present company (A) didn't provide stock or options while joining but new company (B) is already listed and providing rsus with better tc. Present companys (A) sign-off may have to be returned due to 1yr clause. Should I stay or go? Both companies are SaaS based e-commerce. Had to jump off old company (C) to protect myself from layoffs and secured a job at present(A). To summarize: C: Old company laying off A: Present company for 1 month planning IPO TC: 180K+10% Bonus+5k signon. (1yr clause signon) B: New listed company that's providing offer 170k +6%bonus +rsu 100k/4yr vest +10k signon (1yr clause signon)+espp participation #hopper #jobhunt

Old TC and new TC breakdowns?

4 years TC: Company A ~797k Company B ~831k The money is not worth moving but if the role, company and career outlook is significantly better at B then why not.

If the present company was too stingey to offer any stock even though they're IPOing soon, the answer is obvious

Whoever answered "no" I'm curious to know why

Has anybody left within such short period of joining for comp reasons while you liked the manager? What was your answer when your manager asked?
