> probably going to learn more doing the startup

This jumped out at me, too. Learn more about what is my immediate though. Working in a large company you will learn a lot about project management and navigating through existing systems, structures and so on. Less glamorous than what you might learn at a startup but IMO no less useful.

Having done both i wouldn't categorize the work you do at a startup as glamorous. A lot of the jobs and tasks you'd never be asked to do at bigco become the responsibility of everyone at a startup out of necessity, not efficiency or choice. Things like covering a support phone, or training users or marathon sales trips.
