No. Decades back I was in the same boat. Thought of quitting 7 days into the job. Terrible rains, crazy rent, horrible traffic and no balconies in the city.

Now that i look back thank God I didn't. The people are wonderful, the auto drivers are 100X better than what Bangalore has, the city infrastructure and commute has definitely improved in the last decade, and workwise there's no better place to be if you are in bfsi.

Hang in there.

Bangalore is nothing compared to Mumbai. Stick through and you'll love your life by December.

If you're in BFSI, stay put mate. Flooding will happen for 5 days in a year...The remaining 360 will give you enough reasons to stay put. Wish you all the best !

25 LPA in Bangalore vs 18 LPA WFH

Considering taxes in hand, the difference would be 40-45k at 25 LPA and then monthly expense of 35-40k in Bangalore, so isn't 18 LPA better with WFH in tier2 city only from money POV , just a thought not any job offer decision to take.
