Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

I have been doing WFH for the last 3 years from my hometown. Before that i was in Bangalore(YOE:5). Now i am kind of bored, doing the same activity daily, visiting the same places on weekends. 

Thinking of relocating for short-term(1-2 months) somewhere, budget 20-25k monthly, not so lonely place. Suggest some places, internet is a top priority. If i liked the place, I can extend my stay.

~50LPA, Remote, Where should i relocate?

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

Folks,

This is my first post. I wanted your input on switching my completely in-office job (mandatory 5 days in office with zero scope for WFH unless for emergencies). 

I’m looking for a remote-first company and willing to switch for 35-40% hike from my current CTC.

I’m holding another job offer currently (30%hike) - during the initial screening they offered me Hybrid but after interviews they stated it’s mandatory WFO. 

Can anyone advise how the markets are looking and what expectations I should hold on to while on the job hunt?  Any referrals in a remote-first organisation  would be much appreciated.

Location: Bangalore
Expectation: Remote or Hybrid but location needs to be in Mumbai.

Thanks folks for reading on till now!

Remote Jobs

Business Development Manager

I am not part of the Bangalore/Hyderabad group and due to personal reasons can't move there.

Due to this a lot of opportunities get lost as companies don't entertain applications. Is there a way to convince the hiring manager against this?

How to convince companies to hire remotely

I am joining a new company which is remote first.

Does it makes sense to be in banglore?

Given that if i move to my home town, I will save 95% of my income.

I am confused because I also like banglore and dont like the idea of living with my parents.

But if i stay at home for 2 3 years, I would be able to buy a property in banglore when i move back in future.

Does it makes sense to be working from home in banglore

Hi folks,

Looking out for remote companies with decent pay and reasonable WLB. Please reply if you know any.

Decent pay = close to FAANGM equivalent TCs (including ESOPs)

Remote companies with decent pay

I am a middle class guy working as a senior engineer in one of the product companies. I belong from the north-east, and I am the only child in my family. 

Since covid, I was working in a wfh setup. Recently, my company has ended work from home for everyone, and I am supposed to move to Bangalore very soon or quit. 

I am an active user on all social media groups on Reddit, Fb, etc. For the past couple of months after seeing so much of negative news about Bangalore, Especially the high population, skyrocketing rents, the auto unions, corruption, cut-throat competition, discriminative news, traffic issues, etc. It makes me nervous to be honest. My wfh here was pretty chill, and I had a very limited social circle here, but was satisfied since I could spend most time with my mom and dad. 

Im very afraid now about what should I do next, shall I quit the job and search for wfh, or shall I make my move. I don’t have any acquaintances there, no friends, no idea about what I’ll be doing next, how to start house hunting, or job hunting. At this point I am miserable and overwhelmed to think about all of this. 

Anyone who has gone through all of these, If you can share your 2cents, experiences or thoughts, about how you dealt this phase. It will be really helpful for me at this point in my journey. Thanks in advance! 🙏🏻

Remote jobs

I want to know if we can get a remote job from abroad IT companies in India. 
Does anyone have any experience? If yes pls share how someone can apply for the same.

Remote Working for abroad companies

So, on LinkedIn, I see a lot of job opportunities at Google and Microsoft Bangalore. Some of it says onsite and a few are listed as remote. 

Just wondering, do these companies still offer remote roles? or is this a trick to attract applicants?

Also, people who are already working here, have you guys ever requested for permanent WFH and it was approved?

Does Google, Microsoft (Bangalore) offer remote work?

Analyst

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

Principal Engineer with 13yoe. I have been assured of a promotion in July by my manager to Technologist position. That is, if they don't stop hikes and promotions for the whole company.

Current TC: 40L fixed + 10L bonus + stocks

Domain: Computer Vision + ML

I feel like my current TC is average to lower average for a product based MNC. And it will be at least 5 years for the next promotion, if i stick to the same company. Will appreciate inputs from folks who have been in a similar situation. Thanks!

How much percentage hike should I ask for role change/promotion?

Data Scientist

Recently, I interviewed with a US healthcare startup. I cleared and was offered 30lpa. 10% hike on my last CTC. I need to work in the Central Time zone. May even need to stretch since it's a startup. Good learning opportunity and ownership.

Even before this, I got an offer for 38LPA from another healthcare startup from Chennai. Apparently I couldn't take up that offer because of relocation. After that whatever calls I got didn't have the budget or wanted me to completely relocate to Pune, Mumbai or Gurgaon. I am looking for something in Bangalore hybrid/wfo/remote. Some companies left the hiring process in the middle saying org restructuring. I got some offers to be VP or Co-founder with sole equity.

The number of calls that I received last year comparatively are very high and that too from very good companies.

I am clueless right now. Since, I am broke and feel helpless. I am not sure what to do now. Sometimes I lose confidence and feel low on what I lack...

So, coming back to the question, how do you guys decide on offers?

With exorbitant price for renting a place in bangalore, it is even fine to take a cut to go for a remote only job.

Can anyone please list and help me finding companies still offering WFH jobs?

Cybersecurity

Welcome to Moving Abroad's Private Community

Due to financial difficulties, I couldn’t afford college in past so had to dropout. But after working in different startups for 4 years I am financially independent now.

Currently, I am working as a product manager in one of the startup in India. But, all of the startups I worked for were > A series in terms of funding.

Can I get a working visa in European countries or Australia?

What should my next move in upcoming years? Working in some foreign based countries as a remote employee? Or should I get a working visa first in some country and then apply for remote jobs?

The reason to move out from India is less pay and work life balance. I am planning to move back to India after few years of working in abroad as It would help me to save some money to venture my own startup.

Which countries provide working visas for dropouts?

I am a fresher, and from non technical background. I am getting a internship, they are offering me remote with stipend but I am insisting with wfo, the stipend is 25K. But I badly want to move to bangalore, just so I can learn more and make connections. But seeing all posts of high cost of living. I’m now confused.
