Hi folks,
I’m working as a Product Lead Architect at Deloitte USI with 12 years 9 months of exp.
My current compensation is 47 LPA fixed + ~10% bonus, and I’m based in Kolkata.
I’ve been selected for a Lead Solution Architecture (Generative AI + AWS + MICROSERVICES) role at JPMC, with the role based out of Bangalore.

I had a few questions:
Considering my experience, current CTC, and skillset (GenAI), is it reasonable to ask for 70 or 75 LPA fixed?
What is the bonus % at JPMC for lead Architect

Lol man dont go to Bangalore you will loose your peace of mind with the long traffic plus the rising rent costs .. the salary will start getting stagnant there and the prices increases outside very much

Congratulations on the offer.. my two recents -
1. 47L in kolkata is way better than 70L in Bangalore. Why? You would have to take a flat on rent. Considering, you are a family man, getting a flat on rent (good one) would cost you 80k per month (assuming you are staying close to JPMC office)
2. Travelling to office everyday is a nightmare in Bangalore, doesn't matter where do you live.
3. Overall expenses would go up drastically. Expenses like cook, maid expenses etc.
4. You are in kolkata because either you are from kolkata or vicinity area, every year you would be coming home to visit extended family or parents. Check the flight fares, you will understand this better.
5. Also, 70L will attract an extra tax of 7L for sure (bare minimum).

I had a similar offer which I rejected because based of my calculation overall increase in savings was 14k per month with a hit on my lifestyle and increased chaos in life. So, think logically and take a decision accordingly.

Hey, if you live 8-10 km away from JPMC Bellandur office then you can easily get a 2 bhk flat in a good society in 40k
Also I agree that going office is a nightmare and JP will soon start 5 days WFO and it sucks because you have to spend Atleast 3 hrs daily to commute. So, decide wisely

Yes you can ask for 75. Let us know how much they are finally agreeing

Are you Tier 1 grad or post grad?
