As an engineer who accepted an offer from Spotify in 2011, worked there until last year, and am still holding on to a good portion of my grant... it's mixed. From both my experience and that of folks I've spoken with, the last year or two has been quite good for us. That said, you're probably much better off financially if you accepted an offer from a FAANG-type company around the same time and stuck with them.
