Dublin vs Bangalore - product n tech roles

Which is a better city to build a career in tech / product? Pay wise, learning wise and overall quality of life wise? Please add perspective on future potential, current standing, etc. (Basically a holistic assessment is need!) 🙂

Which offer is better and why? Pune: CTC: 20+ variable(no clarity on variable) Company: Startup with 1 year hike cycle (bare minimum hike) Company Size: More than 120 Reporting to: Business Head Role: Core BD with slightly overlap of cross functional Stability: Slightly more than Bangalore one(I would say 1% more since they slightly work as lala company) Bangalore: CTC: 22 +12(Esops) Company: Startup with 6 month hike cycle Company Size: Around 30 Reporting to: Founders Role: Set up and lead the entire Business and cross functional roles(cr.functional offer better learning and growth tooo) Stability: OK than Pune Both the company are startups and in terms of stability the Pune one holds higher stability at company level(I would say 1% more than Bangalore) but since its sales roles so I think it doesn't matter. (as per LinkedIn the avg duration of sales folks is 11 month in Pune company) Which offer is better in terms of growth prospect and considering that you want to move to higher role in the future or may be start again in future ?

I am currently WFH, but looking for new opportunities. Since most of the companies are now demanding on site, which is better for better growth, savings and learning? Gurgaon/ Noida or Bangalore?? Current Experience ~ 2 years

I’m a 2023 graduate working as a SDE in a Product Based Company In Bangalore. My CTC is 8LPA around 55k hits my bank account. In next 5 months I’ll have 1 yr of experience. I want to switch after 5 months (After Hike) to a Product Based Company in Delhi NCR. Which companies to target? Also how much CTC should I expect? Why Delhi NCR? My family lives here and I constantly feel I’m missing out on quality time with the people I love so I wanna move back. PS: I’m thinking not to go for a CTC below 10LPA

In India, particularly in Bengaluru. Work here means problem they are solving. Salary includes ctc, perks and stocks. Culture here means work-life balance.

What are some Companies in NCR that offer product roles with great culture, ownership and career progression opportunities. Currently in Bangalore but want to explore NCR

Let's face it, bangalore is expensive, in terms of value for money. There are so many infrastructure issues. Travel issues etc But at the same time, Bangalore is the major leagues for tech in India. Events, meetups, startups all are prevalent mostly in Bangalore. Given all this, and having a choice on where you wanna stay, what would you choose? 1. Bangalore 2. Other city? 3. Lead Nomadic life, Travel around city to city, state to state, country to country?

Almost one year later of, Gojek CO-CEO Kevin steped down from his role, today GoTo CEO Andre also stepped down from his position. Now, one of the the primary investor is taking his role of GOTO CEO. Investor being CEO is worrisome 😞 And this is just 2-3 days after Pune office shutdown and 3rd round of layoff.
