Switch or No-Switch

I have 4.5 years of experience in Data Engineering and currently earn 18 LPA. This is my third organization. In my first job, I worked for 2 years in support, night shifts, and a toxic culture, which led me to switch to a data consulting firm known for its rich tech stack, strong culture, and talented professionals. There, I excelled and earned multiple recognitions. Unfortunately, after the company was acquired by an MNC, work-life balance declined, quality suffered, and redundancies increased. After 1.5 years, I moved to a prestigious analytics firm, but the project I was assigned to involved poorly built internal products rather than the tech I was hired for. Despite my strong performance, the client’s reliance on me has restricted my movement. It's been 1 year, I've joined the present org. Now, I have a 23 LPA offer and would appreciate any advice on whether to accept it or explore better options. I'm also worried if that affects my career trajectory.

Hello, I’m sorry, but I don’t feel worthy of answering your question. However, can you tell me what skill set is required to land a job as a Data Engineer?

Money is important but work satisfaction matters too Will this switch help you gain better tech exposure or leadership opportunities?
