What’s the pattern with the fatter wallet company? Do they have layoffs with some frequency? Is there something wrong with the company or is the uncertainty with your proposed position specifically?

Personally, I can’t do my best work if I’m always wondering if this is my last week.

Glassdoor reviews more of less place the two companies almost equally, and the package being offered by the two is almost in the same range.
My preferences include:
