I have 2 offers at very different places. Big healthcare agency with a better title & really great team. Or a pre launch startup with great potential as a lead designer. Same $$. What would you pick?

Currently at Deloitte in Cyber (100% client facing) and just got an offer for an internal cyber role at McKinsey.

Nonaccounting question. Is it odd that my grandma doesn’t call or send a card for my birthday? She is 83 and in good health (mentally and physically). She lives alone and is on a fixed income so I understand not sending a card since she has 8 grandkids and 10 great grandkids and cards are so expensive now. But is it asking too much for a phone call on my birthday?

Would you continue into the nursing leadership ladder or go into health informatics (which also has leadership!)?
