Career Suggestions Requested.

Hi All. I passed out from a Tier-2 MBA college last year and got placed in a so called Big 4. My college placement cell had some policy due which I couldn't negotiate with the HR and ended up being lowballed. I come from a lower middle class family and 90% of earnings is going towards Loans(Education and Personal). I am almost 29 and have ZERO savings! I am not bogged down by the savings part but life seems to be so crushing at times. Continued in comments...

Pros:

- fairly decent place to work (from someone who worked with the Vancouver and San Jose offices). never met a blue badger (permanent employee) who had awful things to say.
