The disincentives listed here make sense to me. I would just add that people’s motivations are highly individual, and so people will differ in how much weight they put on any of these points or on how well their CV looks.
Personally, I’ve moved from Google to AMF and have never looked back. The summary: I’m much more motivated now; the work is actually more varied and technically challenging than before, even though the tech stack is not as close to the state of the art. People are (as far as I can tell) super qualified in both organizations. I’m happy to chat personally about my individual motivations if anyone who reads this feels that it would benefit them.
