Hi Blind,
Can you help me figure out if this is a good move?

Current (not Nutanix):
Pros: great company, great WLB, team and leaders.

Cons: many years at the company, bored with the work I’m doing, no promo in the next year+, not motivated to innovate any more.. weak career growth

650K unvested, avg 200k refreshers every year

Great product and team, company has a bright future, will work on very interesting things, personally know founders from previous jobs. Low risk as far as people and growth, but high risk financially if liquidity event does not happen or small acquisition in the future.

Worth the risk? Will a good acquisition 10x what I am walking away from?
