Should I(women) relocate to Gujarat as my fiance dad has settled business there and fiance want to join that I am happy with job in mumbai?- Grapevine

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

I'm a 28-year-old married (Wife is also working) individual currently residing in Kolkata, where the living expenses are relatively low. I have 5 years of work experience, and my current compensation package is 28 lakhs fixed and 3 lakhs variable (approximately 1.95 lakhs in-hand salary after deductions). With no liabilities or responsibilities, my monthly expenses are around 40,000 INR, and I manage to invest around 1.5 lakhs per month.

Currently, I enjoy a stable job and live with my parents, who take care of most of my living expenses. However, I'm considering the possibility of switching jobs and moving to another city, which would require me to bear the additional costs of rent, food, and other living expenses on my own.

Question: Given my current financial situation and the potential for increased living costs in a new city, should I explore a job switch and relocation? Or should I continue with my current stable job and living arrangement in Kolkata, where my expenses are minimal? What factors should I consider when making this decision?

Should I switch and move to bangalore

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

I got a decent hike and better job/brand. My current role is wfh until they call, but new role is in Mumbai. 

Initially I was not sure had a convo with parents whether to take it or not. After discussing all this, finally when I said I'm gonna accept my mom broke and started crying. (Cause I'll leave for mum then) 

In dilemma what to do? 
Not sure if right forum to ask 

She had her bypass surgery last year

Mom cried

Analyst

Initially they were offering a role in Bengaluru but later they asked me if I want to go to Udaipur, which is HO and absolutely lovely place .
But I'm concerned that my life will become slow paced and I'll prefer calm at a very early age of my career.

Wonder Cement Udaipur, offer is great !! But should I consider moving to a small town from Mumbai ?

Looking for a partnerships & alliances role in Mumbai

Partnership manager

Context:
So I'm a lawyer currently working with the Big4 as a senior consultant in the Business Consulting vertical. I've been here for the last 2.5yrs. I'm due for a promotion to manager this year. However due to multiple people leaving who I used to gel well with along with the fact that of late since the last 8-9 months the team I work for has become too pro work instead of looking into individual welfare has got me very dissatisfied with my work life here. 
Mind you that I'm given proper recognition for the work I do in terms of awards, retention bonuses etc. have all happened but since the last 3 months, this dissatisfaction has been brewing in me. Although there has been no negative incident which has happened to me directly, I've been informed of many conversations second hand where seniors have been behaving very rudely and in a rash manner with my other team members. 

All of this led me to thinking that before the going gets tough, I should venture out and look for better opportunities elsewhere. In the midst of my job search, I have received an offer today with a big Indian MNC in the Retail and e-commerce space to join their legal team as a counsel. 

Now that I have this offer, I am contemplating whether I should go for it as it would mean shifting cities with my wife. 

My wife is 50% against me shifting as it would mean leaving the Big4 and she keeps telling me that to tough it out and to see this as an opportunity instead of jumping ship as no indian MNC would be able to provide a better experience and exposure that a Big4 is giving me. 

Salary wise also, I've kept in mind that I won't be shifting unless it's a 30% hike along with relocation payment. However, i have a feeling that this MNC will provide that also if i ask for it. 

So there my ask to the forum here, should I shift or stay? 

Please lend me your wisdom!

P.S. This Indian MNC is big like Tata, Adani, Reliance Big (without taking any specific name)

Should I switch?

Looking for opinions: If a guy is settled in a tier 3 town, earning a good income, owns a large house, and has a couple of businesses, with supportive and open-minded family, and no bad habits, would you consider moving there?

About the guy:
- 6 feet tall, well-mannered, average-looking, with a good nature
- Recently received a marriage proposal, parents are asking me to consider but want to leave final decision to me.

The town might not have a lot of activities, but it offers a strong family environment and a spacious home. Would love to hear your thoughts!

Would you consider living in a tier 3 town if the guy is well-established?

Iam a product designer and front-end developer plus a no code developer.  I have 1.7 yrs experience.  I don't have a big package ,6 lac plus 4 lac I make via freelance. Iam not in a big metro city . My expense are all around  6 k a month. 

My gf is a junior scientist  working for us base company which makes batteries for electric vehicles.she has package of 8 lac. And she is working near my home town. We both are based from kochi kerala. 
She has approsal every 3 months .and have lot of opportunities  to travel outside India attend conference. And it is a rare opportunity.  

Now we are planning to get married.  But I don't want her to leave her Job because she had   learned  so much  and finally she  got this job .

The problem is ill have to move to kochi ,there the packages  are not that great. I'll have to settle for less below 10lac.

From some mentors I talked they say I would get around 16 lac easily. The only reason I never bothered jumping was I was very comfortable  in my job and and my total income was also good.

But now iam thinking what should I do.
Since she has to be offline work  from home is not option.  I'll have to move . I'll be near my home and parents . 

But I will have a lame packge . 

What should I do.im confused 😕

Should I  settle for  small package?

1. Good for Mumbai because the city can breathe.
2. Can the cities build a cosmopolitan culture like Mumbai? Will people from Mumbai move?
3. Bad news for Mumbai's economy. 
4. Such news is common before the election season. 
5. It's all a ploy from the ruling government to prop up Gujarat as the hub of everything.

Your take on news about companies moving to Gujarat from Mumbai.

I’m from Tier 3 city, software engineer, 7 YoE. I work with great team member and they really love their work but I’m not that passionate. I take ownership of my work but don’t feel like I belong here. I’m not good in coding and SDET by profession. I didn’t save enough money in my first 3 years of career, switched back to back from 2020 onwards and recently moved out of India and now I think I have enough money. I always wanted to settle in my native place, Prayagraj in UP unlike my colleagues and most of my friends who enjoy to be in metro city. I somehow feel I have very less needs and if I shift to Tier 3 city, I’d have less expenses and I don’t have to buy houses as I already have home. At the same time, I feel may be I feel FOMO 5-10 years down the line I left good job, lifestyle.
Additionally, I’m looking to get married, none of IT sector girls want to live in Tier 3 and rightly so as they put so much effort so they want to live/settle in metros mostly.
8 years back I took GRE, put all efforts to do MS from US. 2 years back, I got this opportunity to live that life but I feel I don’t enjoy hustle culture/ city lights. Don’t like cafe hopping or anything. I feel at peace when I visit my hometown, my paternal/maternal houses, Varanasi Ghats. 
I have 1.3 Cr INR but given I’m just 30. As per Finfluencer or by  my sane calculation, this is not sufficient. Post marriage, this is certainly not enough. Should I take a break and assess or just keep pushing myself to earn more and then go for FIRE. 
Hoping for constructive feedback.

Should I take a career break?

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

I am an engineer and have been working remotely since the pandemic started. Initially, it was great as I could save time by not commuting to office but now I feel like I am missing out on something.

I don't know what it is but I just feel like I need to be in an office environment to thrive. Maybe it's the social aspect or the structure of having set hours, but whatever it is, I can't seem to find the same level of motivation when working from home.

Anyone else feeling this way? Any tips on how to make remote work more productive and enjoyable?

Welcome to News Discussion's Private Community

From the past few months I'm seeing news of all the big projects of National interest being parked in Gujrat. Be it GIFT City, DREAM City, Chip Manufacturing facility by Tata, 2036 Olymics stadium, 2 new smart cities, center for AI excellence, Cholera Solar Park, Bullet Train stations, etc?
I'm happy for all the work happening but it seems unfair that all great projects are happening in Gujrat. 

If trade is a reason, there are other states as well in western coast like Maharashtra, Karnataka, Kerala.

I'm not trying to make it political, but I feel it is. 
If it's not political please give your reasoning. I want to be wrong on this.

Why is everything being built in Gujrat?

Salary Expectation

Looking to relocate to Ahmedabad from Pune. 
Current working as Product owner/ functional consultant with an MBA.

What are some good tech/IT companies legged in Ahmedabad or Gandhinagar?

I'm at that age where is tremendous pressure to get married. Can't even put in words the kind of torture I go through every day. I'm a woman. I have met people mostly through AM set up. I didn't click with anyone. I don't have faith that I'll be anyone compatible through AM route. Tried dating app, quickly realised it's not for me, the compatibility is even worse there. I go to events and such, didn't really meet anyone. Idk if it's just the Kannada culture, everyone is just so shy! I enjoy being by myself but would prefer being with a partner. I realise the importance of having a companion. At the same time, I also don't want to just get married to someone for the sake of it. 

So Bengalurians, especially Kannadigas, where did you meet your partner/SO/spouse? 

What is something I should be doing that I'm not doing?

On the work front, I'm doing quite well. Looks wise too, I don't think I'm ugly.
