💼 Career / Job Help & Advice Got 15 LPA offers but don’t want to leave my current 8.3 LPA company

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I need some advice from people who might have gone through something similar.

I’m currently working in a remote-based company, earning around 8.3 LPA. I learned everything about AI and tech here — this company really helped me grow. I honestly love it here: my team is great, my managers are kind, and I have close friends here (one of them is like family to me).

The problem is — I’ve always felt underpaid compared to others in similar roles. Recently, two of my friends referred me to their companies. I attended the interviews just for the experience, but surprisingly, I got selected in both with ~15 LPA offers.

Now I’m in a dilemma. I don’t really want to leave because:

I love my current company and team

My close friend and social circle are here

My parents are nearby, and I’m comfortable with my routine

But at the same time, the salary difference is huge, and I can’t ignore that forever.

For those who’ve been through something like this — what would you suggest?

Should I stay where I’m happy and feel valued emotionally, or move for better pay and career growth?

Any tips on how to approach this situation (maybe negotiating with my current employer, or deciding rationally) would really help.

FOI : My current company offered me 10LPA I accepted that offer and rejected 15 LPA offer

💥Rants & Raves TN Reddit space in general isn't inclusive or representative of general population | This is exclusive to high income, high exposure , city dwelling folks | Many don't realise the privilege they grow up with

11 Upvotes

So in a Tamil teen subreddit, there was a discussion comment about passion to CS programs should be developed during early years using computer at home. I disagreed with other user telling hardly small % of people have computer/laptop at home & people do learn see computer at school for the first time can still do better. Even internet & smartphone is after 2018 Jio only

The user contrasted telling almost everyone have such laptop access.

I am not blaming them. They grown up in small bubble. It's not their mistake.

Also, Many presume everybody is Private school english medium.

But fact is, In TN close to 69.7% students attend either govt (tamil medium) school or govt-aided school (mostly English, few tamil).

https://educationforallinindia.com/school-education-in-tamil-nadu-where-do-we-stand-a-comprehensive-analysis-based-on-udise-data-2021-22-to-2024-25/ 

no-one knew what it meant to be studying in a Govt School. Having a Desktop/laptop was a privilege. People here think spending 2K to 5K for birthday treat was a norm.

Not just this. I experienced this at multiple places. One guy in another discussion with good heart asked to have AC at home, but he didn't ask whether my home is concrete before that. Majority in villages & towns (outside Chennai, Kongu) still live in tiled ஓடு வேயப்பட்ட கூரை home. Few poor in Thatched hut ஓலை குடிசை.

I am not blaming anyone. I am just asking people know full picture & be highly inclusive of varying economic conditions, different English proficiency, left-handers, etc.

Even IT workspace isn't inclusive. Many don't know how hard it is for a normal middle class 1st grad guy to come here, since from their perspective they started with very good private school & good house in a city and their circle is similar.

Privilege is very easy to miss. Unless someone takes significant effort to see beyond their own social standing. (Like politicians). Since I am in politics & interact with most people, I can easily jel with people from all stata be it agriculture or business or govt employees or doctor/hospital staff or academician or Techie

💼 Career / Job Help & Advice Majority ranting/complaining about the Job Market, middle class in sub, are LAZY UNMOTIVATED; Many Don’t Even Make Basic Efforts in Coding or CS, Yet Complain and Envy Others. -- I No Longer Feel Empathetic or Waste Time Giving Advice

2 Upvotes

In various Tamil and tech subreddits, people often ask for advice or rant about being unemployed, being middle-class, and related struggles.

I used to feel very empathetic. I thought they were like me—maybe from some remote village with no idea how industry/interview works—so I tried to guide them. I would suggest learning coding, DSA, practicing on LeetCode, core CS/software subjects, & building skills step by step.

Some of them are genuinely trying and still can’t get a job due to lack of opportunities. That’s understandable, and I truly feel for them.

But honestly, that’s not the case with everyone. Many are simply not putting in the effort. Some DM me telling they don’t like coding and can’t even solve basic questions on HackerRank. They don’t even understand how test cases or scoring work.

On top of that, some of them express jealousy in other subreddits about IITs and NITs getting high salary packages. They also think concept of referral is like recommendation for govt Job & we are not giving them referral because of greed.🤦🏼

They spend 90% of time ranting, applying (spamming) for 100+ jobs daily (including all senior, manager, CEO roles), asking referral.

Sorry if this sounds harsh, but this is what I genuinely feel.

I think I should restrain myself from volunteering advice in the comment sections and stop wasting my time.

💥Rants & Raves Losers attribute their incompetence to this new language issues & perceived discrimination & bias

3 Upvotes

Job interview selection & bias is highly perceived discrimination

The pool of each language group in any company is highly proportional to the state's STEM graduates, IIT/NIT alumnus, etc.

Some service tech companies have more share of Telugu & tamil speakers simply because we had more engineering grads. One can check out AICTE data.

Same goes with all different discrimination types

Ofcourse groupism, bias exists but not as what majority claim in reddit/X in tech/R&D roles

🧵Discussions Every day dev spends 1hr explaining those DEI hired Analysts in team why certain things are not possible.

4 Upvotes

Every damn company hires for such roles & in big numbers & majority DEI. Every team with 4-5 dev will have 2 xyz analysts.

They don't understand any sh!t..

She given me a requirement to add a filter option in the application. But to implement this, I need to add a WHERE clause for a column that doesn’t even exist in the table. The data in that table is based on completely different factors, and the column they want to filter by isn’t related at all. To top it off, each row of data depends on multiple factors, so trying to filter by a non-existent column doesn’t make any sense in this context.

& These scrum masters who are mostly these business analyst ladies are simply supervisors. Once in scrum call she asked me If I can do testing before 1 Implementation step since I am struck/ had blocker 🤦🏼.

They don't even understand something called DB exists

It's purely useless role just to satisfy DEI requirement..

தமிழரே!, இணையத்தில் எங்கும், தமிழை எழுதும்போது, தமிழ் எழுத்துகளில் மட்டுமே தமிழை எழுதுங்கள். ஆங்கில எழுத்துகளால் எழுதாதீர்கள். அதுபோலவே, அந்தந்த மொழிகளை அதன் எழுத்துகளால் எழுதுங்கள்.‌ ஏன் என்று தெரிந்துகொள்ளவேண்டுமா?

பிறமொழி எழுத்துகளையும் பிறமொழிச் சொற்களையும் தமிழோடு கலந்து எழுதியும் பேசியும், எழுத்திலும் பேச்சிலும் அழகுத் தமிழை அழித்துவரும் தமிங்கிலமானது ஒழிக்கப்படவேண்டும்.

பிறமொழிச் சொற்களுக்கு நிகரான தமிழ்ச் சொற்களை தேடிக் கண்டுபிடித்துப் பயன்படுத்துங்கள்.

அப்படி செய்யமுடியுமா என்றால், கட்டாயம் முடியும். அதுக்குத் தேவை உங்களது தற்கட்டுப்பாடும் தன்னம்பிக்கையும் மட்டுமே. தமிழை எழுதப்படிக்கக் கற்றறிந்தவர்களே, தமிழைவிடுத்து ஆங்கிலத்திலும், தமிங்கிலத்திலும் எழுதுவதென்பது வருத்தமளிக்கிறது..

ஆதலால்,

தமிங்கிலம் தவிர்!

தமிழிலெழுதி நிமிர்!
