Hi,

I'm my 2023 batch topper in mechanical engineering. I learnt multiple softwares regarding mechanical simulation such as Ansys Comsol, Nastran, I'm just sick and tired of my low salary when compared to my friends in CSE. Currently i have an offer from CSIR (Indian research institute) for a year contract for 3lpa and if I clear a exam I'll be allowed to do PhD directly for 4 years.

My question is will I be ever able to cross my friends salary in my young age? Or should I switch to CSE COURSE

Don't compare mechanical core jobs to IT/software jobs. They get paid a lot. If you want to jumpfrom core field then try top IT companies.

Alright fish, so I'm from a non-target school for consulting, for reference my school typically sends a couple to the Big 4 federal practices and FDD but definitely no MBB front office. Is there any way in hell I can break into some type of non-strategy role at a Big 4 firm with a B4 audit background and industry experience?
