Elaborate your query?

Has anyone rejected the UK offer. Or accepted and traveled for few months Returned back to India?

Not sure, you need to be calculative on expenses on rent, energy bill, water bills, mobile, internet use, TV subscription, IHS annual payment, commute expenses, council tax where you can fit with your monthly take home. To manage this you need monthly 2500 GBP, if not it's risk time, need to leave the place.

I rejected a 60k offer there because of expenses. I get 37LPA fixed in India.

Lots of right wing hysteria about liberals trying to engineer equality of outcome to correct sexual/racial inequities (in higher ed, for example). I think we all want socioeconomic, gender and racial barriers to opportunities to be addressed, but no significant number of people really believe in equality of outcome right? This is just a straw man argument.

Received an offer at 300k/year and a Google offer at 200k/year.
I wanted Google since I started the whole interview process, but I am now not sure given the salary difference.

The position at Google is more junior and the team is just being formed, which involves more risk. However, I like the team at the other company.

The difference in salary is really considerable to push me to rethink this. Is it worth it? Can you share your experiences of when you accepted a lower job offer and why?
