The company culture is really good. People are very friendly and easy to work with. Work- life balance is also good and you can choose to work remotely with flexible timings. Most importantly, you can take your time-offs without giving anyone reason why you are taking that time-off.

This new position is closer to my home and does not involve night shifts. The offer letter is attached. I have also requested a ₹95,000 monthly salary increase and am awaiting their response. Could someone advise me on whether I should accept the new offer or remain in my current role?
