I’ve done both and can’t decide what’s better.

I loved the start-up I worked at because of the people and the mission. It was a lot of fun. I got worked like a dog though, spending late nights and being asked to come on weekends. Going way above and beyond.

I love the big company I’m at now because I get a work life balance. I can leave at 4-5pm and never have to think about work again. My role definitely feels less technical thought and a bit boring at times. Everything I’m learning is more in the soft skills (giving presentations, process management workflows, working with teams and dealing with personalities).
