Hello fishes, I got offer from 3 companies i.e ey, capgimini and hexaware with around 8 years exp and offers are almost around same with little bit variations. So needed help from you guys to decide which one will be better to join in terms of work life balance, flexibility, yearly hike and employee benefits. Really appreciate your inputs on this.

Probably less salary with much more equity and level. Depends on the stage of the startup though.

+1 to this. As the startup moves to increasing levels of maturity, expect the cash to go up and equity to go down. However, should the startup successfully launch, that equity can be worth far more than the cash you give up. It could also be worth $0 if things don't go well. Make sure you do your homework and have faith in the startup's business case.
I gave up a lot of salary and incentive compensation moving from a ~$10B/year technology company to a 200 person series C startup; 35% ish all-in. My equity package was considerable, even at that late-ish stage, which offset the day-to-day hit. Generally, startups want to pay non-technical roles at your level ~$150k-$200k in total comp, but of course stage and funding level dictate a lot.
