Are y’all safe after the tornadoes?
Hi,. 24F YOE = 2years10months Work = DevOps and cloud (AWS) . I have two offers, both from same work. SAP Sal 11.7 fixed + 1.3 Vpay = 13LPA Airbus Sal 14.3 fixed + 2.7Vpay = 17.5 LPA and 5L joining (should be given back if early exit in 3years) Both companies have other benefits apart from CTC. Can anyone suggest which one to decide? I have some idea on SAP labs but not sure about airbus when it comes to work life balance, career growth, team. thank you and much appreciated

Honestly it’s about absolutes as much as %. Consider what your salary growth will look like 2-4 years into the future (which should be relatively easy in the current market), likelihood of any potential life events (like getting a partner), decide what you’re savings goal might be. I know people paying 50% salary in rent because they’re desperate to live in zone 1, but they also make £200k a year and they seem to get inflated bonuses each year, so it doesn’t really matter. I pay 30% but earn substantially less, don’t see my salary increasing and need to save for a house deposit.

This is really helpful. Thank you!

I’d go so far as to pay 50% for the peace of mind of living alone. I need my own space and think it’s worth the extra few hundred pounds. But I’m also 30 and make 62k so there’s that.
