Confused between 2 offers
Hi all, I am having two offers- one from Infy (Kolkata) another from Deloitte (Hyd). Kolkata being my preferred location, while Deloitte offering 15k more monthly. (I know Hyd's expense will cancel this out eventually).
Kindly suggest on what to do. This is my first switch.
Thanks in advance.

While Deloitte offers a higher salary, choosing your preferred location (Kolkata) might provide better work-life balance. Consider the long-term career growth and quality of life in each role before deciding.

Deloitte’s extra 15k monthly is significant, but factor in the cost of living in Hyderabad vs. Kolkata. If Kolkata’s your preferred location, the savings might not feel worth relocating.

Honestly, 15k more is nice, but you don’t wanna spend it all traveling back to Kolkata every holiday. Location > Money sometimes.

15k more per month adds up over time. If Hyderabad’s cost of living isn’t much higher, it’s worth considering. But emotional attachment to Kolkata can’t be ignored

Plot twist: Flip a coin. Heads = Deloitte, Tails = Infy. Your reaction to the coin flip will reveal what you truly want!

What would your future self thank you for? The extra cash from Deloitte or the comfort of being in Kolkata? Imagine yourself five years down the line and decide!

If it’s all about career growth, Deloitte might have the edge. But for vibes and home comfort, Infy wins. Tough call, man!

If you are early part of the career,Hyderabad Deloitte is a better option. Kolkata won't have much options to switch later

In terms of money difference, it's not only 15k, it would be many more. You can easily make subsequent switch in coming years if u r in Hyderabad. Making a good switch would be difficult in Kolkata later.
So for money/career , Hyderabad would be the better option.
But if you have emotional attachment to Kolkata and if you are satisfied in average income and career growth then You can opt for Kolkata offer.
It's all about your life, your priorities.
