I have 11 years of QA experience. My last CTC was ₹36 LPA (fixed), Role was QA Automation Architect, but I had to resign in Nov 2025.
Now I have two offers:
- omnicomG – ₹24 LPA (fixed) – Senior QA Analyst
- CSIGlobal (client: HSBC) – ₹27 LPA (fixed) – Automation Lead
I’m unsure which one aligns better with growth, stability, and long-term impact. Would appreciate thoughts from folks who've worked with either company or faced similar choices.
Thanks in advance!

Don't got for service companies if possible. And try and negotiate a higher salary. You're coming down from 36. If not higher than this, at least ask for 30-32 fixed

I am writing this message besides the staff group of EY GDS. Specifically Staff -1 at assurance level. I would request everyone to spare few minutes and read it -

Wanted to bring out that staff-1's are paid peanuts (3.33L CTC) please don't expect them to slog 12-13 hours. They don't have enough motivation or incentives to work that long. Seniors,AM's and Managers should be more kind and explain the work to them clearly rather than making last minute changes.
