I am currently working at Samsung, Bangalore and have an offer from Airtel XLabs. Should I take this offer or not? Is it worth moving from Samsung to Airtel? YoE - 2 Current TC - 17 Offer TC - 26
Tell us why u shouldn't join
I am confused whether Samsung, Bangalore being a R&D Center has a better reputation than Airtel? Will it make a difference when I switch further?
Airtel is also good brand. U have the brand already in ur resume and u r getting good hike. At the end what matters is money. Also these days brand has nothing to do with the intelligence. People from no name companies are going to Google and facebook.
what decision did you make?
Don't even consider joining Airtel, worst working conditions. Min 12hrs daily 365 days.
Which team, position?
Can't disclose much. Airtel is well known for its bad work life balance. You will be ordered to work late night, it not unusual to get a call after midnight and work on something called "urgent" or "business priority" for stupid things. You will have mental and physical health issues if you don't adapt with the culture. Manager and HR will threaten you with termination and bad review or even legal cases to abide with them what they ask you to do.
Which domain?
Backend Engineer
Go ahead, if it's mobile development then they have shitty app
