What companies (with 500+ employees) can offer both better WLB and TC for L5+ SDE compared to what I have right now?

For the reference point:
* My TC as L5 SDE is ~275k USD in Seattle (I'm slightly outside the band).
* In an average week, I spend at work ~50 hours, but ~25% of this time I work on growth and promotion related topics. I spend perhaps ~30 hours on delivering value. Majority of my time is spent on writing documents and meetings (which I enjoy). I'm oncall 9 times a year for a week and have a sev2 perhaps once every 2-4 shifts.

Companies that offer both better WLB and TC:
* Google
* Airbnb
* Twitter
* Netflix
* Dropbox

Potentials but need more data:
* Snap
* Splunk
* Lyft
* Linkedin

Can you list any other company?

* Facebook better TC but not WLB
* Apple doesn't pay better
* Microsoft better WLB but pays worse
