I went back and forth between corporations and startups. The money and hours are way better when working for a corporation; especially if you manage to get a contract position with a high day rate.
But I've realized with time that I'm just not built for the corporate world so it's not even an option for me anymore. After 6 months working for a corporation, I feel like shit and I have to quit for my own mental health.
After working for startups for a while and taking risks all the time, I'm no longer the same kind of person as the typical corporate office worker and it's hard for me to fit in such environment.
If I didn't have better options, I would probably do contract job hopping from one corporation to another every 6 months... I did that for a while and it gave me a certain feeling of control over my life which made me feel kind of like a one-person startup.
