Google vs hedge fund

Reviewing an ds offer from a hedge fund. The gauranteed base and bonus is lower than my current Tc ( current tc is inflated by recent stock appreciation) but with sign on and bonus, the Tc at the hedge fund is about 5%- 10% higher for the first 2 years. Should i make the move? Wlb is slightly worse at the hedge fund but the scope could be bigger and the upside could be higher in 2-3 years. Tc 390k Yoe:3.5 senior ds

How is the upside going to be better ?

Google SQOa58 OP Oct 30, 2021

More new initiatives but higher risk. Also at google is quite,hard to be promoted to l6 and the tc will be quite flat around 370k to 400k in the next few years i guess.

Be sure you know what you're getting into with wlb. Stripe is a dream compared to past hf experiences, and I have seen people break down under the stress/hours

Hey, slightly off topic, but can you kindly give a referral for stripe ? Really dream to work for it someday.

No way, stay put at G. Also put proper breakdowns and a poll.
