I got H1B Visa and 83000 USD dollar petition amount as annual package.I am confused as this amount will be enough to survive there with wife and 7 year old daughter.My wife is working here and together we are earning 50LPA annual.We are settled here by owning house too.Confusion is my wife will not be able to work there on H4 Visa so the kind of life we are living here will not be possible there.Thoughts?Suggestions?Pros and Cons?

Just think about when you are back maybe after 1, 2 or 5 years, you will get less package along with your wife without a job.
Am sure you will not be able to earn 50LPA.

H1B visa is now vague. You never know when they gonna reject it and plus don't forget Donald Trump or some psycho like him again comes to power the first thing they gonna do is go away with the work visa.

Also don’t go on h1b unless you plan to comeback

85k, not worth it. Stay

Hi all, I currently work 52-55 hours on average weekly and have been at my company for 4 months. I am now the only operations team member and am expected to complete all ops work alone. (Barely got trained to begin with). I work in Manhattan as well so I’m not sure if my 70k+15-20% bonus is standard or if I’m being very underpaid, especially considering that it is an employees market. Thoughts?
