Personally been charging 100 an hour. No idea if that's too low, but the work is easy and can easily mangage the workload with my day job.

Been offered contract roles for 130-150, though.

Was going to say 1,100 - but pandemic probably has it down.

How is the work life balance in Citi?

Here is the scenario: Have 2 offers from IT MNCs and 1 from Citi. Citi's offer is the highest. Almost 5 lakhs diff in the fixed component. Although money is important, but I am also seeking a little balance with life. I was previously in ZS Associates and to be frank, life was hell. I am not looking to relive that phase again.
What are the daily actual working hours?
Shall I join Citi or let go it for a lower package offer?

Seeking honest advice here.
