There is a big difference between joining a startup in growth phases vs an existing player.

* Startups have less with financials, but more with growth. Stock options are a big deal, as you are betting on that growing. It is a gamble, but it can pay off...or go no where. * Existing players need the 401k with matching and other incentives. There is often very little growth there, you need the long term investments.

But I really have no idea why I need a union contract. Dealing with HR is bad enough, now we have to throw in another dump-ass manager into the mix?
