If you had to choose between ‘Rs 33.5 LPA and Rs 45.5 LPA’, what would you go for? Naturally, the job opportunity that is offering more money, Rs 45.5 LPA,
correct? Well, the internet had other plans, as it mostly sided with the job offering Rs 33.5 LPA, when this Bengaluru man shared about his job dilemma. Taking to social media, the man shared about his current job that offers him Rs 33.5 LPA. He then stated that he is getting an offer for Rs 45.5 LPA, leaving him thinking whether he should switch or stay. However, the catch here was that his current job was mostly work-from-home, with good work-life balance and ‘cool teammates’. The new offer, on the other hand, did not come with guaranteed work-from-home and required him to join the organisation’s Bengaluru office. As soon as the man mentioned about his WFH perk with a non-toxic team, most netizens were quick to point out how such a comforting and peaceful environment is often rare. Hence, choosing the lesser-paying job. The post was quick to go viral, gaining many reactions. A few did choose the wealthier option. However, the majority sided with ‘peace and life’. Times Now could not confirm the details and the authenticity of the post. Check out the viral post: “33.5 LPA WFH vs 45.5 LPA Bengaluru - good enough to switch?” the post read. “6.5 YOE working as Azure DE. CCTC is 33.5 LPA WFH. It's not permanent WFH, my current project and most other projects are working remotely. So there's a chance of me having to relocate to Hyderabad in future if client/company decides to ask us back to the office. Offer CTC is 45.5 LPA Bangalore location. This company also is in a similar situation like my current company i.e. they are not committing to WFH on paper and based on the project I can get WFH/Hybrid/5 days office also. Both are new age SBCs. In my current company WLB is great and teammates are also very cool. But the quality of work is not up to the mark. I'm inclined to switch as the offered ctc looks lucrative. Will it be a wise decision?” the post read. The post was shared on Reddit, by the handle ‘VacationMedium8343’. The post was shared today, and pulled many views from netizens.

Personally I would never let go of a WFH job. Peace > Money any day,” the post read. “The wfh looks better though bro in terms of savings. Also, are you married? Or are you thinking of getting married soon?” wrote another. “Let’s consider both are fixed components. You will get around 2.45 LPA in hand in Bengaluru, and in terms of spending: Rent: 40k Travel: 5k Other expenses: 10k If you are doing WFH, you can save this money. You may save around 50–60k, and then you would get around 2 LPA in hand. If you are doing WFH, you can directly save that money; in terms of CTC (33), you will get around 2 LPA in hand. Now the choice is yours,” added another. ALSO READ: ‘Samaan Kaha Se Mangwau?’: Blinkit Down? Internet Goes Crazy | Viral “WFH anyday. Bengaluru is not worth living now.
