My current CTC is ₹7,80,660, which includes a ₹1,32,000 night shift allowance, and my monthly take-home pay is ₹72,133. I have received a new job offer with a CTC of ₹10,67,231, a monthly take-home pay of ₹83,333, and 192 restricted stock units (each valued at $60, vesting 25% after one year and quarterly thereafter). 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?

Good pay, get to work on new technology and designs

Salary - Excellent

Dislikes

Work life balance not that good, culture is not good, india management works like dictators taking decision involving employees but without consulting them. Also US people get permanent wfh while India people have to come mandatorily to office (I cleared with HR that they did not have any government mandate to call employees to office), very low hikes as the firm is loss making for 4-5 years now.

There is absolutely no job security, the moment company thinks your role in a specific project is over you are fired. They will hire another person for different project but won't even try to put you in another project.
