Frequently Asked Questions
Should I choose government job or private sector?
It depends on your priorities. Government jobs offer job security, pension, and work-life balance. Private sector typically offers higher starting salaries, faster growth, and skill development. Use our Government vs Private calculator to compare based on your values.
How much will I actually take home from my first salary?
Your CTC (Cost to Company) includes many components like PF, gratuity, and benefits that you don't receive monthly. After taxes and deductions, expect 60-70% of your CTC as annual take-home. Our Fresher Salary Reality calculator shows exact breakdowns.
Is it worth buying out my notice period?
It's worth it if your new job's salary increase significantly exceeds the buyout cost over 2-3 months. Also consider career growth opportunities and signing bonuses. Our Notice Period Buyout calculator helps you compare all factors.
How do I value my startup ESOPs?
Don't use the current valuation directly. Apply discounts for vesting period, exit probability, dilution, and tax impact. Our ESOP Value calculator shows paper value vs risk-adjusted real worth with Indian tax implications.
What factors should I consider when comparing job offers?
Beyond base salary, consider: job location and cost of living, equity/ESOPs and their real value, benefits (health insurance, PF match), career growth opportunities, work-life balance, job security, and company culture. Use multiple calculators to get a complete picture.
