Making a Career Move — Safe Bet or Fast Track?
I’m a Software Developer with 4 years of experience and currently facing a tough career decision. I have two job offers: One is from a large, stable, and reliable organization with a strong brand, structured processes, and good work-life balance. The other is from a smaller, fast-growing company that promises faster learning, more responsibilities, and slightly better pay, but comes with uncertainty and less stability. At this stage of my career, should I prioritize stability and long-term security, or go for rapid growth and technical exposure? Would appreciate insights from anyone who’s made a similar choice — what path did you take, and how did it shape your career?
