Hi everyone!

hope everyone is having a good day

I have a plan that after working in any city I am given an opportunity in for initial 6-7 year of my career, I would return back to my home city of Kolkata and find work there. My concern is that there are no big payers in the city and after working in cities like Bangalore, HYD by ctc could get out of their budget.

Any advice on this?

Has anybody done the same or has the same plan?

I am aware WFH is a option now...

If you stay at ur home city you will save lot of my money on rent and other expenses na.
So you could compromise on ctc

That is true. I will keep this in mind

Wfh is a no brainer for people who have no reason to stay in expensive cities just for a job.

You get more work done, have more time for your loved ones, be present for your family and also save good amount of money.

Just keep upskilling with yourself and be ready.

Thanks for your input. This does seem like a better option but have to get ready as you rightly said
