I have been interviewing for my next role and was interviewed by a well funded startup with high EBIDTA margins, great management but when it came to offer they offered me 10% to what I currently draw. The CHRO stated that we are a startup and not a well established multinational firm who can pay well. On the other hand the multi national company offered me 15% hike on my existing and their VP HR stated we are not some well funded startup who can pay well. Now this makes me wonder who is actually paying well. I have not shared my offers with either as it's against my negotiating principals to use offers against companies. . I can negotiate based on my skills and talent. It's a position of chief information security officer at the start up and Director Infosec at MNC. Job profile is mostly same.
I think you might be senior individual and must go for the MNC job. In case of the startup they will misuse your skillset coz they’re paying less if it was net +ve in terms of money making it would’ve been good. Also give or take esops are scam and what really matters is money in hand
go for MNC, startups need to pay more, for risk/reward ratio
Go for the MNC unless the startup offers a solid perk like remote work and yearly on-site
