Should I join?

I got an offer from splunk. The issue is last month I joined a banking MNC with 29 LPA as a fixed CTC.

Right now Splunk is offering 22 LPA as base, 19 LPA as Retention bonus, and other benefits which makes my total CTC as 41 LPA.

Not sure what to do? At one side I have a stable higher base pay job and on the other side a higher ctc and interesting job.

If u don’t want to risk being blacklisted at the banking MNC, stay. If things don’t work out few months later then maybe u can get in splunk again? Anyway, if u hv good interview skills and can take risk then go for Splunk

What do you think the offer looks good enough considering the base is low?

Splunk being a tech organisation will give more exposure, bank is good for retirement

If you are still early in your career I would say accept the new offer. 12l is not a small amount to leave on the table. Never care about getting blacklisted. There are 100s of banks and financial MNCs in India, getting blacklisted from 1 of them doesn't mean much.

Ask splunk if they are willing to restructure the CTC, with 35 as base and 6 as bonus.

Because after the first year, you would feel bad getting a downgrade to 22.

I don't exactly remember the term HR used but she said you'll get it at the end of the year.

Imo if you leave banking mnc won't they blacklist you unofficially? If not then go ahead with splunk . Also check splunk pip and layoffs , some companies fire employees before 1 year to avoid giving retention bonus.
