I want to start my own startup in 2-5 years, and I want to do the most I can now to help achieve that goal. What company do you guys think would help me the most in terms of career, clout, networking, learning, etc? I come from a startup background so donโt have any experience with big companies yet.
If you want to start your own then go for a startup. Any big company will never give you that kind of experience.
You wonโt be happy at any large public company.
How authentic is breakout list? How are startups evaluated?
Do you already have both offers? What are the offers?
How is this even a question? $1 Billion breakoutlist startup has more potential than measly Facebook L5. Comeback to facebook as an L7 when your achievements and contributions at this startup are publicly known.
