Crazy IT money has literally ruined core engineering.

#PURE RANT

Everywhere I look, guys are flexing their 15 LPA, 30 LPA, even 50 LPA packages… and honestly, it makes me question my own career choices. Feels useless sometimes, and I regret why I took Mechanical instead of IT.

In core, after all these years of experience, the ceiling is barely 12 LPA. That’s the harsh truth. And I’m not even saying this because I slacked — though in my case, yes, I did focus more on hobbies than pure career grind. But even those who are focused in core (not CAE/CAD) don’t end up financially well off compared to IT guys.

This is just a rant. I know no one can do anything about it, and everyone’s path is different. But sometimes, when you see the gap, this HUGE

it hits harder.
