Do I stay or do I go?

Its been rough at current employer so I started interviewing and landed an offer from Beacon Platforms who is pre IPO. This resulted in the first time ever that I have been given a counter offer and begged to stay. Counter offer includes promotion, promise of LTI after merger closes, and another possible salary negotiation. Counter offer: 160k base, 184k T/C and promises of LTI after current merger finishes Beacon: 170k base, 204k+ T/C (not including pre ipo stock as worth nothing till IPO) YoE: 6 as DevOps engineer

Beacon offer sounds much better. Why stay?

Go. You will be likely marked as a flight risk if U stay.

Don't accept counter offer. What made you search for new opportunities? Has the situation changed?

Streaming is being sold off for 2nd time in a year, and lots of employees retention issues
