I am on H1B and my Visa transfer got completed. I have my joining in 2 weeks at Citi. Looking at the layoffs trend I’m worried, so wanted to check if it is safe to join now. As part of retention my manager promised to increase my TC along with promotion(which should be 100k) in upcoming quarter and initiate GC as well. My Petition at Infy expires in an year and need to go for amendment as well as extension, will it back fire if I take back my resignation. Should I stay back or join Citi? #severance #layoff TC: 72k(Austin) Citi TC: 120K(Tampa) #citibank #citi #bank #resignation
Do you want to stay at a company that appreciates you only when you resign?
IMO it is better to join Citi. That’s 50k Difference. Is Citi planning to apply your GC?
I would say staying is safer since you know they desperately want to retain
Get in writing that Citi will do your GC after <n> months on the job. While no one can say how 2023 will turn out for different businesses, having something in writing that can stand in the court of law is going to be on your side. Also, ask your would-be manager how he sees the group you are about to join do if 2023 is bad? Is senior management supporting the group and do they see it essential to serving the customers even in the bad times.
Please improve basic English 🙏🏽.
Unfortunate comment… He/she clearly mentioned that he is an immigrant, so why should his English be an issue?
Sad, how some people always enjoy bullying others.
Go to Tampa as that almost double your income. No state taxes just like Texas. A GC is a GC - you can get it anywhere at anytime as long as you’re needed.
If you just got hired I doubt you’ll get fired
You didn’t mention how much time you have on your h1b. If it’s less than 2 years you better stick else switch asap. Citi is better than WITCH. 72k is extremely low for engineers. They’ll discard you if they found a backup.

You are not safe in the current environment. You can get fired anywhere if the company isn’t doing well. I would assume a customer banking should still be fine even if there is a full blown recession
