I made a similar move a year ago with almost the same numbers as you. Hope you negotiated a bit on the base because the increments slow down in industry. But bonus was much higher so overall comp worked out for me. WLB is wild, I am doing further education with my additional time to upskill.

I have been very surprised by how relaxed it can get which has helped me focus on personal life and pursuing other career interests. Hoping the same for you!

Anyone have any direct knowledge or can speak to that group's comp?

Hello Fishes,

I am new to the investing world. I have invested some 80k in Nifty fifty index funds. I wanted to increase my investment in other MFs and stocks.

Can you advise how to start it considering short term and long term financial goals.

Short term goals - like for 2-3 years

Long term goals - like for 5-6+ years or more depending upon the performance

I have seen multiple you tube videos but seems to get confused on how to start and which funds to pick.

Thank you!
