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?

Compensation wise BlackRock is good but JPMC is nearly equal so take location, project and tech in consideration to take your final decision.

Remember one thing - If some companies are laying off employees then it's equally a good chance for the other companies to get talented resource . Here things will remain balanced mostly and there's no need to fear . Not all companies do layoff at the same time. You may end up getting a 100% hike too. Just believe in yourself and focus on your skillset, time to brush up and pull up your socks. Stay safe , stay positive !
