In my mid-twenties and noticed my ponytail is smaller than it used to be when I was in high school. Has anyone else experienced this and is it normal?

Hi Folks
I have been offered a position of Senior Developer- Senior Associate 1 in PwC AC Bangalore with 19LPA fixed.
I would like to understand what this role is. I am currently a Consultant in EY with 5.8 YoE. Am I being lowballed by PwC? Or is this fair?
Also HR said that I can work from Anywhere so it means I need not relocate. Is this true?
Any clarity would be appreciated!

I've realized that I keep working 60+ mostly because I suck at things regarding the personal life. My love life sucks, I don't have that many close friends, and don't have a good hobby (mostly in my free time I just pass time).

I’m in a relationship for about a year - we generally have a good time together but don’t really have the butterflies and I haven’t really had a crush on him apart from maybe before we started talking.

So I’m late to the Indian Matchmaking series. Is it the guy who has to be wealthy and the women who need to come from wealth? There doesn’t seem to be a lot of emphasis on what the women do for a living, but the men all seem either well-off or getting called losers. Is that what people look for in real life too? So there’s no place for women on the come up to be with someone above their own social class?

This is an interesting one. So I work on a small finance team at a tech startup. I have only one peer who is female, about 4 years older than me. She looked at the payroll and realized I make significantly more than her. I also work significantly less hours than her because I work on the technical side while she is operational. I think all of my years in consulting allowed me to get hired at a premium. She sorta confronted me about the pay gap and I skirted the issue...
