I'm one data point. My new grad offer from Google this year was 116k base salary, 15% target bonus, and approx 250k stock vesting over 4 years. I turned it down for a higher paying offer.

I'm a senior at an HYPSM school, currently looking at offers from one of {Google, FB} and one of {Jane Street, Old Mission, Five Rings, HRT, Virtu}.
The offers are about the same at about 200-250k depending on bonus and stock performance -- the big tech company upped their stock grant to meet the expected bonus at the trading company. It's not obvious to me which one will be more in a few years, and it seems like hours in tech are better. Can anyone weigh in?
