I have 2 offers, one from JPMC ( LOB IS Consumer and Community Banking) and the other from Wells Fargo. Both are giving similar roles, and exactly same pay. Location is Hyderabad. I tried for revision of pay but it didn't work.
Could anyone help me understand which one is better to join in terms of hikes, technology used and work life balance. I have to join on Tuesday, 16 Aug.

PSA: With tax season is around the corner I just wanted to share that CashApp (Square) allows you to e-file individual Federal return and 1 state return for free (with NO income limit), and the best part is it supports ALL essential forms for stocks like 1099s and Sch D (gain loss on stock including crypto). DM if you need a ref code

Not involved at all with after school stuff. I stay after school to help students with homework / after school tutoring. If not, I spend time grading, planning, making copies. I try to stay focused on, you know, our job as a teacher. 🤷♀️

I always feel like I can't get everything done. This year i am using some auto-grade assignments
Pro
I don’t do any after school events that are not in my contract. Elementary school is different than middle school- no sports! We can run enrichment classes but that is optional. At this point in my life, I am striving for work- life balance, so I set a firm schedule, leave work at work, and go home to do other things. I used to make work my entire life and it led to a lot of problems for me and missed time with my kids. It is ok to say no and prioritize yourself.

I hope that this is the year i can give more time to myself and not be at the school so much
Pro
I find that the little pay wasn’t a trade off for the lost time and added stress.

I am beginning to believe your statement. In 33 years of teaching, I have always given too much to my job.
