Agreed. My old colleague in SP500 leads his India team as well. He was looking for a real IAM specialist in HYD and they are paying 43L base pay + upto 15% bonus. We were thinking it is better to leave for that kind of money.

True..US is good as long as you have job, once its gone you need to pay 4k for taxes rent emi etc from your pocket and this constant fear is not worth it in long run.
