Need advice. Which company to choose.

Role : SDE 1, backend YOP: 1.5 years

TLDR : I've received a job offer from a startup in Bengaluru with a base package of 14LPA. This opportunity came through a connection who holds a senior position in the company. Currently, I'm employed at an early-stage startup with a small team, working on a great product, with a package of 10LPA.

The story behind this: I was laid off from my previous company due to their financial issues. At that time, I informed my manager to keep me in mind for any future opportunities. Subsequently, I joined a smaller startup with a 20% increase in salary as a SDE 1. I am happy with my work-life balance and satisfied with my role in building a successful product with a substantial customer base.

Recently, my previous manager, now in a senior position at a mid-sized startup, referred me for a role. Although my second-round interview didn't go perfectly, I've been offered the position based on his positive feedback, and they are offering me a base salary of 14LPA.

I have responsibility in my current company and my resignation will effect their timeline. also i don't want to ruin my connection with my manage also who offered me the new job.

I'm uncertain about what decision to make. Any advice?

Notify your ex (and possibly to-be) manager about your situation and get the minimum amount of notice period such that it's not a big loss on either organisation. Try to complete as much as possible and maybe write down some guidelines for the people who'll pick up your work?

Of course assuming you think the new org is not too bad product wise
