Hi All,I'm in a dilemma and need your suggestions
My yoe - 2.7
I recently joined a decent product based company and getting 16 lpa

I got an offer from a startup , located in Cayman Islands and they are offering 76K USD
Regarding savings wise they told I can save almost 30 lakhs per year in that startup since that island is tax free.

My goal is actually to get into faang,I did some preparation but it was not enough.

I'm not sure whether to consider that startup offer or prepare here.

US is great.. good clean air.. bangalore is full of trafffic , bad air

I'm fearing a bit bro, like it's an Island not a place like US or UK , so I may need to return back to India at some point and need to find a new job here.

Also it's a small going startup , there may be some risks.
And I'm thinking of sincerely preparing DSA and system design , if I go there I'm not sure will I get enough time to prepare for that.

Ja bhai ja
76k is good offer

Yes , but I'm fearing a bit like it's an Island so one cannot stay more time there, probably need to return back to India after few years or find a new job in another country if luck favours.

2) It's a startup , I'm hearing about recession and all so worrying abt that
3) I'm not sure will I get enough time to prepare for DSA and all, since work will be more in startup and also I think one will get occupied with other chores since it's a new place

I don't want to sound like a party popper, but just to let you, once you get there, you an expect your peers (ones with similar experience) to be making 2X of what you'd be making. So be prepared for that.

For them, you'd be another deadass cheap labour.

Also, in terms of savings i think they're painting too rosy of the picture. You'd be able to save 30L only if your company is footing your living expenses.

Hi, Regarding savings , I spoke with few of them who are working there, they told we can be able to save around that amount since the entire amount will be tax free.

Are you responsible for giving performance feedback? Avoid giving personality based feedback.

Not sure why there’s been zero effort on their end? Kind of bummed. Anyone else been there?
