Salary is good compared to other main contractors.

  • Salary - Excellent

Dislikes

Family benefits component provided for is not clarified in the offer. Once you join you will get to know, you will get that amount after you bring your family. So effectively, you will loose first 2, 3 months of this amount. Secondly, the agreed salary and provided salary will have a minor difference, and the justification is, this is as per their company pay structure and calculation, so you always loose 200 or 300 from your salary.

New offer. Confused.
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?
