Well i'm 26 now, and when I was 23 I took the job with the bigger company for more $$$....then they sold the company for $$$ then that company moved to Mexico because of $$$....which guess what...left me with no $$$ just a shitty compensation package and long fucking hours to help relocate my job to Mexico... I say take the more stable job, even it's less money, you can work your way up in a small company if you're a good worker.
