Is it selfish to move out
I am a '22 grad and have been doing WFH since graduation (Aug' 22) but the thing is I am not liking it much and feeling alone and sometimes helpless. I have an offer from another company with a bit less pay but better culture and tech and it may be better for my overall career to take the jump but currently I live with my parents and they have become bit dependent on me, what should I do?
Same 22 grad Bro continue wfh, find out some other way to entertain/occupy yourself but stay wfh with parents
What rubbish! At 22 years, he is not even independent. The kid gotta go out in the world, live alone, explore, gain experience. Not be another manchild.
Fair point.. One advice kid - "Rubbish" is something you should refrain from using to dismiss someone's opinion. Everyone has opinion and it may differ from you
Step out. Explore the world and yourself
Would you mind to share the company name and the package offered. That's what we need to contribute to community.
I'm in the same situation but let me tell you one thing once you know your stuff, being remote is the best thing ever
While in the short term, there are 2 reasons to continue - higher pay and flexibility to stay at home with parents. However for the longer term, you need to have a plan in place that if you get a much better job with a higher CTC and you need to step out, your parents should be ok / you need to plan for some house help or something similar because eventually there will be a situation and you will need to plan for it now itself
Need more context on your family being dependent on you.
If they can manage on their own, then better to move out and explore things. You may still continue to support them financially.
Or other option is to continue WFH and go on vacations.
But all advice is contextual to your family situation.
Share pay then someone can suggest if you should take pay cut or not.
Which tech stack ? Imo I would say don't take paycut .
Don't take any women's advice on this.
step out please - its better for your mental health/career wise. once you get to a new city and start liking it - you can always convince your parents to join you.
