I was recently faced with this exact offer at seed stage vs a series B with a similar salary. YMMV but what I found when I ran the numbers is the series B offer had a lottery ticket with a similar risk/reward profile to the seed stage. Of course I got less total equity, but it was way more likely to ever actually materialize. Plus being employee 80 at a Series B is a lot easier.
