jobthrownewaway··on Ask HN: Accept better position or better company?
My dream job is CTO / founder at a tech company. I've attempted a few ideas but nothing's taken off so I'm trying to do the next best thing in someone else's company.

I get to hire the team.

Good point re: equity, I was trying to say compensation is competitive for both situations.

This is a great point. No one might care if I have a big shot title at a company no one has ever heard of.

> Which boss do you like more?

The guy at the 'better' company seems kinder and has more experience. The smaller company guy is younger and less experienced and tougher. Probably would be "easier" to work for the former, but I don't know if I would develop as much professionally.
