A decent burger or Small pizza on Zomato is Rs 300+; A coffee at Starbucks is now 450; Movie tickets are 400; the average cost of a weekend drinks and dinner with friends is above 2K; Lets not even talk about how expensive rent is right now. It feels like the cost of everything is just rising and salaries are not growing fast enough to make up for the rising costs

Wanted to know how much are senior software folks at prophecy.io earning. I have 6+ yrs of exp and am hopeful of being selected so would like to know the salary ranges if possible. What other startups are offering at senior levels would also be helpful.

I travel regularly, and today prices are 20 rupees higher for 8 kms on all the apps: Uber, Ola, Namma Yatri, and Rapido.

Anyone else who's facing glitches with Uber and Google maps? Google Maps nowadays is showing longer routes for the same destination and because of this Uber charges extra. Eg: a cab ride <100 bucks is now costing 120-150 just because of the longer route taken. Is it a glitch or an implementation to charge more?

Swiggy is slowly becoming unusable. They have already increased minimum amount in Instamart for free delivery from 99 to 149 to 199 now. This is really becoming a problem. Is there any other alternative to this? They are slowly showing their true colours now that they are aiming profitability.

I interviewed with Uber in Jan 2023, cleared all the rounds but they did not released the offer till march, so I lost hope and moved ahead. Fast forward, they reach out in Feb this year as they are hiring aggressively now. Received the offer letter based on last year interview rounds. Right now I’m working for a MNC as SDE 2(~5 YOE) and I’m not sure weather to join it or not. Uber is offering SE-2 for a fintech team. Other points: 1) cash component is 40% higher than my current org. This excludes the RSUs which Uber provides 2) various additonal perks which Uber provides like free food, wellness , insurance etc 3) WLB is great right now, not sure about it in Uber 4) Frequent Layoffs in Uber Folks working in Uber, how is the wlb and layoffs scenario here. Would you recommend joining?
