Hi Fishes,
I'm currently working in Infosys Ltd My
Skills: Java, Spring boot, Angular (Html, CSS, Typescript), Sql: Oracle DB, MySQL, Python
YOE - 2 Years
I got offer from TCS for Java Developer for the CTC 9LPA with Joining bonus of 50K
Can I join TCS or I can still remain in Infosys for better salary package
Please suggest, I'm confused
I’ve put myself up for L4 promo this cycle. Assuming I get it, what would be the best next steps to optimize for long-term growth/TC?
My understanding is that L5->L6 is extremely painful at Google. It may be easier to leave for a handful of years and gain managerial experience before returning.
L4->L5 is less challenging; however, I’m under the impression I can do this quicker at another company (if I leave after being freshly promo’d) AND get higher TC.
TC: 270K

Everyone going office regularly?
I’d like to get off this island now.

Schweser is definitely the better of the 3.
If you end up going with Schweser, I highly highly recommend purchasing the package with the Secret Sauce book or at least purchasing it as an add-on. Hands down one of the best resources to utilize in the last few weeks leading up to the exam.
Schweser and qbank is all you need!
Schweser for sure
Meldrum for me
Schweser and the Bootcamp from Marc Lefebvre pushes me across the finish line. Ymmv, but for my career... Worth it. Good luck!
I did meldrum for level 1, liked it. Level 2 I failed and was also using meldrum, but full disclosure I didn't put as much effort/study time.
For sure mark
Compare videos on YouTube. All should have at least some free ones. IMO, and in the opinion of a lot of people on r/CFA, Mark just explains concepts more clearly. Sprinkles in context very well too based on his real world experience in the industry. Complement with chat GPT (explain like I’m 5 with examples please) and a ton of practice tests and you’re set.
For Level 1 I had just used the Original Guidebook because I had infinite time. For L2 I used Schweser + Original Guidebook for reference. Worked fine for me.
CFAI!
I’ll die on this hill…
And tutoring from Lisa A on Wyzant
Meldrum 100%, i used him & the official text for all three levels
Schwesser the tutor says
Schweser all 3 levels. Passed each on first attempt. On demand videos were great.
Thanks! Definitely going with Schweser!
