Move to Bangalore for slight pay increase?
Hello, I have 5yoe at big4, currently working from my hometown. However recently I received an offer for a product company (pre-sales) which needs me to relocate to Bangalore. The hike is good 45% but considering the CoL I might just be saving 10-15k more per month than I do now. So, my question is, is it worth joining the product firm and relocate?
Bangalore is recently having water crisis plus traffic woes continues. Just think that it is factors more then money you need to face. Expense would definitely be more than 10-15k so evaluate all the alternatives.
I agree those are a factors too, and 10-15k is just the extra savings I might have. Total expenses I'm taking around 30k at least
Depends really. A lot of smart folks here. And If it's in office role, I guess why not?

Depends on a lot of factors.
1. Where are you from? If you are from north India, more often than not, you will be traveling home by flight and each round trip will cost you atleast 10k and there goes your additional savings that you were talking about.
2. Did you ever stay away from home, do you want to experience it? How good are you with making new friends, it is not easy to make friends after college. If you are someone who likes your own company, then fine otherwise you will end up spending much higher 30k per month, considering a single pg or a room in flat itself costs around 20k pm in areas like bellandur and HSR.
No city is a good or a bad place. There are things that are better in bangalore than in your hometown, and there are things in your hometown better than bangalore.
I'm a hyderabadi living in bangalore for about 1.5 year now. I have not once been asked to learn kannada or talk in kannada. As long as you are respectful to people around you, it really doesn't matter.
The traffic problem is real. But which city doesn't have traffic woes. Mumbai does, hyderabad does and so does bangalore.
Water crisis is also there in a lot of parts of the city. The city needs help, government needs to step and take a lot of rapid measures. But as long as you find an apartment/pf with decent management, you will not see this problem

don’t shift to bangalore
sucks now
Please don’t. I moved to a tier 2 town just to be able to handle the burnout, which is still chasing me.
Add to it the friction you face on a daily basis, living expenses and absolutely desolate personal life, which could all be attributed to my personal choices, but still, I reminisce the city I had moved to over a decade ago. This city isn’t that
Moving for just 10-15k is such a bad idea. Because you shall spend more than you save 😅😅
I do not understand the detest for relocating to Bengaluru, at least from recent drought perspective, its all over south india not only in one city. And regarding Kannada enforcement, its only in some insta comment sections but on ground its same as before nothing has changed.
