What is the cheapest way to get stuff to NYC when moving from a different state? I only have a few items so I was thinking of either mailing boxes or paying for multiple carry ons on the plane. My parents are also coming with me. Don’t want to have to drive

I moved without furniture. I mailed some belongings via UPS. The others I brought via suitcase. My parents helped me move so they also brought suitcases.

Hello fishes,

Hope everyone is fine. I have a doubt to get clarified on it. My current CTC is 6.5L with 5 YOE working as Build & Release engineer. Recently I was offered onsite opportunity to Canada and it's in progress.

As of now they told me this is a 6M-1Y deputation and may extend in future. My concern is let's say in worst case if I return to India after 6M/1Y and when I start looking for job outside as Devops engineer what CTC i can put forward in the interviews for 6-7 YOE. Thanks !!

I recently (1+ yr ago) transitioned from consulting to industry. The hours are much better. Total comp is less than what I was making on the consulting side (-15% less).

I was hoping that I would make up for that comp difference in a year or two but upward mobility seems limited. Is it too soon to look for another job?
