Hi peeps!
I've got 2 offers for senior Embedded engineer role.
1. Mirafra : ₹11LPA (Fixed) : Hyderabad
2. Bosch home comfort: ₹10.5 (Fixed): Ahmedabad

Pretty confused as in what should I choose considering the future growth and a decent work culture!

Be careful of work culture in Bosch local unit. But overall such MNCs control things well by mixing local, global and national employees. Someone wrote excellent benefits and culture in Bosch. Cost of living is also low in Abad. Acquired units have notorious I mean really horrible local culture in Guj - Thomson Reuters, S&P maybe, Cignex in the past, Accenture unit maybe, check thoroughly composition of localities on LinkedIn. If it's beyond 50% it will take global brands 3-5 years to fix the culture to global standards minimum. It's a tradeoff: good benefits, salary, global managers but local acquired units. It takes half a decade to fix things in culture at times.

Some of the global brands / companies which are acquiring locally in India are very very good mostly at global level the acquirers but culture turnaround is an exercise in itself. Such is M&A, I am a guinea pig of multiple M&As so know by experience.

First of all, congratulations on your success.
Your confusion is genuine, understandable.
But there are a lot of people on these platforms, who are either unemployed or finding it hard to clear interviews, especially a good offer, not because they lack skills, but just luck or timing or even lack of opportunities.
So it's not wise to publish here, for the sake of humanity, empathy. Ask someone senior in your linkedin connection.
BTW, look at different websites that provide company reviews. Even better, try asking Gemini or Claude or GPT. Try all.
I am not familiar with both companies, so no suggestions on that.
But location, I suggest that you should prefer the one closer to your home.

Thanks for your input!

Clawback clause in current contract: been in role for over 2 yrs, it was an internal move that required relocation. Relocation was approved shortly after (over 2 yrs ago) but covid meant the actual move and start of my contract with new subsidiary was delayed, I was paid by the previous subsidiary meanwhile. I got small relocation package. Would internal move be subject to a buy-out/clawback clause if I leave now and if yes, is it time in role or time under new contract? Any experience? Thanks!

I had a great experience at Microsoft, and would like to keep that door open in my mind, though my last connect has what I would call unfair characterizations due to a unique chain of events.
