Advantages of public tech - protection against foreign talents, protection against ageism. I still get to code with minimal project management. So I do what I like, with a decent salary, good work life balance, good job stability.
The advantages of public tech appear in the later half of career, I'm not worried of getting retrenched at 50.
Some things to consider. Career lifetime is a long time, plan strategically.

People don’t stay in one company forever. There is no such thing as one-size fit all strategies, there are many people who really go up the ranks in private tech companies, and then just retire with enough money in public tech with that 200k. (also iron bowl) When you are 20+, I don’t see any sense in worrying about your rice bowl so early in your career.
