I’m finally comfortable at my company (hitting number and not so stressed ramping up) and I’m being recruited for a higher paying role at Stack Overflow. Everything sounds well and good but reviews on Glassdoor are not so good.

Should I stay where I’m comfortable for my own sanity? Or does anyone have inside intel on StackOverflow and what it’s like to work there?

If you like where you're at and you're not "stagnant" vs comfortable - it sounds like you are freshly comfortable - unless the pay is significant, stay there!

Do you like the Stack Overflow product? Also think about what other variables you have in your life right now. I say you want to juggle a few intense things versus mainly being comfortable. If you're not super excited about the new offer and you've got plenty of other "drama" in your life right now it's great to feel sturdy at work. And if you like your team, don't mess with it...
