Hey all,

I’m a backend engineer with 6 years of experience, currently in Bangalore earning (X-4) LPA (X-7.5 fixed + 15% variable). I’ve got two offers and could use some advice:

1. JP Morgan (Bangalore): X LPA fixed + undisclosed bonus

2. BlackRock (Gurgaon): (X + 3) LPA fixed + 12% variable

The work-life balance at my current job is good, but I’ve seen mixed reviews about both JP Morgan (CIB LOB) and BlackRock, especially around work-life balance.

Is the higher pay worth the move?

Yes it is, if you found offers from X to Y you should consider Z.

Life is simpler without X

Join X, it seems like a better company.

current salary 23 fixed + 3.5 lakh variable
Jpmc 27 fixed + bonus
BlackRock 30 fixed + 12% variable

Good equation to solve, is it correct ??.

Think about if you are willing to move to Gurgaon from Bangalore. If thats not a concern for you then join Blackrock. I can vouch for work life balance at Blackrock and the culture is really great. Just remember that Gurgaon is expensive compared to Bangalore in all most all aspects.

Hi All. I have a good job offer but I'm wondering whether I should negotiate comp. I made it clear from the beginning what my target for base comp was which is ~$10K over the top of the posted salary range for the job. I also said that I was comfortable proceeding with the interview process despite the top of that range being lower (somewhat weakening my position for later I suppose). The offer is at the very top of the range. Bonus is 5% less than what I get in my current job. Negotiate?
