You can live comfortably on 130k in the Bay Area if it’s just you or you and a partner. Different if you have children

Add around 35-45% for equivalent cost of living to account for tax and rent

🤷🏻‍♂️ I modeled my costs pre/post SF and I came up with like 35% COL adjustment. Started at associate pay which might account for part of it.

How is the work life balance in Citi?

Here is the scenario: Have 2 offers from IT MNCs and 1 from Citi. Citi's offer is the highest. Almost 5 lakhs diff in the fixed component. Although money is important, but I am also seeking a little balance with life. I was previously in ZS Associates and to be frank, life was hell. I am not looking to relive that phase again.
What are the daily actual working hours?
Shall I join Citi or let go it for a lower package offer?

Seeking honest advice here.

Dear Recruiters,

Please keep reaching out. It’s great. But please also tell your bosses that your job and mine are both made easier when you’re empowered to discuss basics like hourly commitment and rate with me.

Hate to be this guy, but I don’t have time to send my resume, portfolio, experience, availability, and hourly rate to your boss, only to find out that the role is 40 hrs a week when I barely have 10 to give. That’s what LinkedIn/my website is for.
