Hi, can anyone refer me at the federal reserve?
Bajaj finance is extending an offer to me for Pune location of 16 LPA fixed. My current fixed is 11 LPA. Is this offer good enough ?
Tech stack: Machine learning, Python, R, PowerBI, Basic SQL.
YoE - 3 years
Can someone suggest if fixed pay is fair or low or high according to current standards. If it's low, how high should I quote to HR Bajaj Finance

What does this question mean? What kind of “coding challenges?”
Data science roles - coding challenges for interview process. Specifically US Digital services agency but curious how technical or what kinds of exercises others have had interviewing for federal roles.
Why would you go fed? Who in their right mind would work to make 30-50% less at a place where your skills go to die?
If it truly is a lateral pay wise, like you are senior executive service, maybe that's fair.
That being said, I'd consider your long term trajectory. Your skills will depreciate in gov, they are so far behind. Your peers will almost never be driven to learn or deliver value. That will narrow where you'll be able to go after. I would strongly consider a gov contractor role if you are hellbent on gov or simply another company at least.
