Miserable, but pulling in $800k/year for the last several years at a FAANG. I have a net worth of $8M and in my 40s. Everyone around me leaving.

Tempted to take a massive paycut to join a startup. But why not milk FAANG a bit more while the gravy train lasts?

I guess you could negate the outcome of this?

-> Leaving because of not learning stuff, Staying because of learning new stuff -> Bad compensation, good/sufficient compensation ..

Although I imagine there could be less positive reasons:

* Few job opportunities / ..
