Going to a new company won't lower your income. Should still get at least a 10% raise with a new company. If they try to tell you they're going to give you a lower income since their city is cheaper say you're not interested.

I made the move from SF to Chicago. Kept SF salary.

Internally? How did you justify it?

Salary will stay the same for strategy. Other groups may require an adjustment.

I am currently in Wipro having CTC as 7.8 LPA.. I have got an offer from TCS which is 11LPA.However, my Basic Pay/Fixed compensation is getting reduced from my current base pay in the new offer and also the HRA is getting reduced. The HR is telling that the basic is fixed as per policy and they cannot change it. The base pay is less but there are several other components which are higher. Should I take up the new offer? Please help. Will the reduction in base pay impact my career?
