Advice for youngsters

While pay/employer brand are generally important parameters for making the decision to decide your next org, please also consider the following:

i) is the company absolutely clear about which team you would be working in: I have seen a lot of people hired recently who keep working on random things even upto their first 6 months

ii) Is the team in which you would be working important for the company: Being a dev in the ordering team is very different from being a dev working on an internal tool that maybe 50 people in the organisation use

iii) Does the company have a sound business model ( make money)

These are additional parameters you should always keep in mind. Always have a threshold for each parameter. And if a company/offer is scoring low in any of these parameters it shall be making it up on the rest.

Disagree. If you don't consider these there is high probability that you you would start looking for another change very soon

I understand but if it’s for youngsters then they should move every 2/3 years at max anyway
