Team vs Company

I’m curious as to what is better for career prospects. Does joining a high intensity team working on cutting edge software out weigh a company with a better brand but a stagnant/boring team or is it the other way around? TC: 110k (Senior in undergrad)

Both

Brand better though, PR effectively marketing you as an employee

what you work on matters more IMO, although cutting edge doesn't have much to do with it

Cutting edge was just a filler phrase. I’m deciding if staying on a high intensity GraphQL/Node team beats say just doing front end with FAANG

Depends on what you deliver. Nobody cares about tools or languages. What value did you add?

Team < company (for resume) Team > company (for growth)
