Updating post with a couple newer options, team is unknown for all. Stripe has annual value grants which limit upside but I may be able to start early 2022 to join before potential IPO.
Currently leaning towards Stripe/Plaid, would love to hear anyone's thoughts especially if you work at one of these places!

Instead, look at the area and team which most excites you. Which of the teams you ha e talked to sound like they are going to take over the world? Who sounds like they are coasting? Etc.
Very broad advice would be:
Stripe > Google > Scalr > Plaid
But that doesn't take your team into consideration which matters a lot.
To give some perspective, joining deepmind would pay the least of all your options, but would still be the best opportunity
