IIT grads accepting Rs 6 LPA ($7500) job offers now

Is the job market in India that bad now? For those not familiar with India: - IIT == Ivy League colleges in India, it's the top-tier engineering college - Rs 6 LPA = US $7500 per year, or $600 per month https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/jobs/hr-policies-trends/iit-graduates-struggle-with-limited-placement-opportunities-and-lower-salary-packages/articleshow/109490427.cms

Not sure what is happening in the tech scene in India. I have been in the US since 1998. My cousin brothers from tier shit colleges are getting swe offers from Google. Earlier today I saw a post in blind that a guy from Cognizant got offer from Google and he is thinking of rejecting that. IIT grads getting 6 lpa offers. What the heck?

Google India seems to be mass hiring since all of the headcount from the US is now there.

Yeah I know sundar's action to move jobs to India and Mexico but worried that India is on its path of quantity over quality. Is Google the next Yahoo or IBM?

Not a single fuck from those journos enquired about the fkin branch of those IITians .....every Tom dick Harry from biotech , civil, mech is applying into IT sector will ofcourse face this exploitation. IITs have proven useless in terms of attracting opportunities in core engineering and this is the repercussion of that.

The hype around IITs is overblown these days. Sure, the original 4-5 IITs used to be elite, but opening IITs in every state so everyone can be an IITian (or an NITian as a fallback option) is not going to produce the same quality of talent that the OG IITs did. Take the bitter pill and move on.

Population has increased significantly, on the contrary there should be more IITs or high quality institutes and the admission should be based on skill and not based on number of people so people don't have to go to Foreign institutes
