3 YOE, I currently have 2 offers in hand : Amazon India, SDE2 Base : Rs 27.5 LPA Bonus : Rs 16L+12L + RSUs Truecaller , Stockholm Sweden 52000sek / month I am open to relocating to Sweden, just that I could not find much about the tech culture and work of Truecaller on online forums, which is giving me second thoughts on joining it.
It’s possible that you can come to US from Amazon India.
Failing to understand your bonus. Can you explain your bonus.
Dude I’ll be pretty honest. Take up the Truecaller opportunity in Sweden. That will give you a much better exposure to people from diverse cultures, you’ll learn how they think, and trust me it is a very good and enriching experience. In India, you will get a higher TC, but will be facing the same old politics, same old unrealistic expectations, same old managers and you know that better by now. If you do not like in Sweden, you can always go back and join some good org. But such opportunities do not come easy, and had I been you I would have grabbed it with all my limbs. Travelling to Sweden will open up more opportunities at a global level. And to be more brutally honest, people in India will advice you to stay in India, people in US will ask you to join Amzn India, saying you can come to US, but that is not as easy at it looks. Choice is yours! Also did I forget to mention with Schengen visa, you get to explore entire Europe and I have to tell you it is beautiful. You’ll love every moment of your travel. Go pack your bags, thank me later! :)

Agreed. International experience will help give you a leg up.
Current TC and company?
At only 3 YOE, just explore the beautiful Europe that’s all. Screw the TC. Unless you are eventually aiming for a relo to US; in that case Amazon is better
Moving to the US from the EU shouldn’t be that hard either ...
Maybe easier if you are with Amazon, but with TrueCaller ?
Hey, where do you currently work?
Here's a hard fact you won't hear from others: if you are not married or not in a committed relationship, you are going to find it very hard to find a girl to marry. Girls in India prefer guy to be in either India or US or at worse London. Stay in India.
Worst advice ever.
Take it or leave it.
52000SEK for 3YOE sounds really good in Sweden. Average monthly salary for 3 YOE is 40-42000 max
Hi, Im in a very similar situation as you. What did you finally do? Would love to know. Please ping me if you see this.

TC is okay, better in Amzn India. This boils down to if you want to relocate or not.
