I had the luck and the curse of working at both ends. Imo. The rule of thumb to be followed is as you accumulate YOE, the size of your company must get small. Meaning start you career with a MNC, bigger the better. When you reach sr. Roles prefer smaller orgs and startups.

The main reason is at the start of your career your role is also limited. So it doesn't make sense to take big pressure. At senior roles, the politics in bigger companies is also big .

Where are Startups, the pressure at lower level in heiraracy is very high. Just because they pay you top bucks they will expect you to fly planes and sail ships. On the other hand at Sr.. Roles, the politics is limited simply due to limited no. Of people. You have to deal with just 1 or 2 CXO. And not to mention you get top bucks just for shifting blame. And you may also get an opportunity to do some scam and earn even more.
