Do you stay at your current job because you are comfortable and have no one down your back? Or fear that you can’t find another job? If you found another job and they are on you constantly do you think you made the wrong decision at that point? My job is pretty chill until things get to piling up but at least I don’t have someone checking me daily.

Little bit of both if I'm being honest. I don't love it here, but I don't hate it either. And the thought of starting over somewhere new where I have to prove myself all over again sounds exhausting.

This is exactly how I feel but the thing on top of feeling this way is that I’m almost at my cap for my position and want to move on but again I just don’t want to start over! The thought of this is exhausting!

I'm more or less content at my current job because I don't really have any constant hassles. And with the job market really lousy right now, I'm grateful to be hanging on to the position I've got. I'd consider moving on if some great offer happened to come along, but I'd be worried that the stress at the new job would make me miss my current situation. You just never know what you might be jumping into.

This is true you never know and this is scary especially in this economy. What if it’s worst than where you are? Plus if you have been with your current company a while you don’t know the stability of the other company as well, but you do know yours. It’s scary to say the least.

Any advice on how to pick the best company for me when offered a position from more than 1 company? I've been interviewing extensively with 4 companies, and I believe 2 are getting ready to send offers. If I receive more than 1 offer - how do I choose? I compared benefits, pros/cons, compared them on Glassdoor, questioned them about growth opportunities, asked about their culture.....anything I am missing? Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Fishes,
I cleared LTI all rounds and in HR discussion we came on mutual agreement for 16lpa .I have 7 years of experience and they gave me Specialist - Data Engineering(P3) role. And we agreed I will join with after 60 as I had to serve 60 days notice period. I was waiting for offer letter and when I received the offer letter I was shocked to see that CTC mentioned was 14LPA and joining date was only 15days from now ,which is way early.
Continuing the POST (++)
