Been in Bangalore for 6+ years and love everything the city has given me. 
This city ( more like people here) taught me what software engineering and product sense is, how to entrepreneurs function, whats a 100X coder like. 
Made many memories, weekend trips to nearby places were so nice. Dated, moved in and then married my girlfriend, adopted a dog. So Bangalore has given me a lot. 
But in hindsight it takes a way a lot also - 
1. Everybody is in constant work mode, even in parties its just about who is doing what
2. Everybody is in loot mode here - i have seen locals pay less for veggies/fruits in front of me, then the veggies apparently have lead in them
3. Rents/builders/brokers/roads - we all know whats up with them 

Though it was nice initially, now i feel like even after earning so much ( ctc > 1cr) if i just spend it all here ( monthly expenses ~2lacs same is with all my married friends), what is the point even.

Hence making a move to slow life now, where you get a house with garden for 25k and fresh veggies and you can actually develop some relationship with community. 

This urge to always outperform in career is not really needed, we all eventually work towards savings and hence if i earn less but spend even lesser, its more or less the same thing for me.

But i dont want to live in a matchbox, travel 1 hour to meet a friend, eat a roti for 150bucks and be in constant anxiety about climbing the ladder. 

All i want is to focus on health, and sit in a garden in some sunshine with my wife and my dog and enjoy a cup of tea. 

So yes, I AM DONE. Moving to a tier 2 ( more like tier 2.5 town ) 

Happy to answer any questions if anybody has any.

So are you fed up with Bangalore or just the career rat race? 
  
 Both are different. 
  
 Also, costs can be low in Bangalore, spending 2L/mo in married life isn't a feature of the city, it's the feature of your circle.

Hyderabad in the early 90s was a prime spot for software engineers, some of them who went to the US to establish businesses there, successfully.

Of late, the switch has turned and companies now prefer Hyderabad for its affordability and cheap availability of talent with the Many Indian metros. 

While this might create opportunities, this also leads to stagnation in terms of ideas and rampant exploitation. One reason why this is happening is possibly because of the cheap labor and human capital available from remote towns and villages of Andhra and Telangana

Why is Hyderabad becoming a cheap outsourcing capital?

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.

The Financial Reset aided by Dedollarization and hyperlocalization is around the corner. We are already seeing massive layoffs in Tech, no money to fund start ups and AI leading to huge financial distress forcing for a huge wage revision.
Do you think IT and Start up will become less exciting and ppl will look for other jobs? Will All will this make migrants to move back to their home states thus leaving cities like Bangalore, Pune, Hyderabad, gurugram and Noida vulnerable? 
Correction in Real Estate prices and curtain spending thus affecting their growth story?
I request the migrants from other states to answer if they ll move back and the residents answer how do they feel about this reverse migrations? 
Logical and sensible answers please and no hate or sarcastic comments... 
Thanks

Discussion has shifted to productivity in work from office vs work from home debate. I feel it’s a narrative which is kind of created by employers and their pr firms.

In reality it’s more about the power dynamics between employers and employees.

Employers are reclaiming control over their workforce by making work from office mandatory. By enforcing work from office policies, companies are subtly reminding employees of the limited job market, making them feel tethered to their current positions.

"The extent of water surface in Bengaluru during 1973 was 2,324 hectares. Over the last 50 years, due to reckless concretization, the water surface has shrunk considerably. Of the remaining water bodies, 98% of lakes are encroached upon and 90% of them are fed with untreated sewage or industrial effluents. Naturally, this has impacted the recharge of the groundwater table as well," IISc's Prof TV Ramachandra had told TOI.

Bengaluru's severe water crisis and traffic congestion are prompting tech giants to consider relocating from the $245 billion IT hub. The city's civic challenges may impact India's IT industry landscape, compelling companies to explore emerging cities.

Bangalore's infra has been crumbling under the weight of its population growth. I believe that yesterday's traffic jam was just a trailer and situation will only worsen with time. 

Seriously contemplating moving out of Bangalore after being here for last 5 years. 

People who moved out, where did you move? And are you happy now with your decision ?

People who moved out of Bangalore, which city did you move to ?

PUNE✌🏻 
 much peaceful compared to Bangalore and work culture is way better than my experiences in Bangalore.  
 Festival celebrations are just amazing and no bad experiences since past 1.5 yr 
 Congestion is piling up this city just like BLR, as a lot of tech companies are gearing up for new offices and new tech parks are already under construction - specifically KHARADI area and they say almost 1.5 lac IT jobs will open up in the next 3-4 years.  
 Traffic woes are same,but again depends on the which part you stay - as we have similar deadlock junctions in Pune as well, if compared to BLR.

Scrum Master

Is anyone here who is joining any company in Embassy Tech Village, bellandur and is trying to find stay in nearby areas.

Relocating near ETV bellandur.

I don’t get the narrative of most south states to force their language on others. I mean people from different states in the north speak different native language i.e Punjabi, Haryanvi etc but still they can do the conversation in Hindi. 

Most of the people from Bangalore always come with the phrase “Go back to your state”. Someone please tell them that we are living in their state as we don’t have much choice. 

Also, almost 70% of their employment comes from people like us.

IT companies should expand their operations in cities like Gurgaon, Hyderabad and Noida.

What do you guys think about this unwelcoming nature of some local bangalore people?
