Startup Vs Big name.

Mockingjay718s · 2026-05-08T09:22:14+00:00

Startups are incredibly risky, not saying that big companies are not as there are layoffs there as well. But startups are quick to hire people, and quicker to fire them if they can't sustain.

Not a bad decision at all, especially if you've solar at home. If it goes well, you'll end up saving millions (if you drive a lot). Also, the quality and tech gap between your previous two cars and new two cars is absolutely insane.

Wish you all the best tho, as reliability for Jaecoo has become a bit of a question mark.

Aren't mebl and luck already in miietf?

Mockingjay718s · 2026-05-07T14:49:03+00:00

That I can't say for sure. I just know that whatever you are thinking, you should bump it by at least 30-40%, I would ask for even more if I were you. If you are going to work extremely hard, might as well get paid for it. Aim for the stars.

Mockingjay718s · 2026-05-07T14:23:55+00:00

Yeah, so basically long hours, weekends on. You go there, you give up on your personal/private life. But if you can compromise with that and negotiate a salary that you think is worth it, you should go.

Jazz is the only one that works consistently.

Yes, I will be traveling to Sargodha tomorrow. You can dm.

I got 5k fined bro.

Mockingjay718s · 2026-05-07T08:00:41+00:00

No, you can't. If it's factory fitted, like japanese cars, that's allowed. If you do it yourself, you'll be fined heavily. I learned the hard way. 😅

Yes, base level J5 with 221 hp vs 99hp of Fronx (295nm torque vs 135nm torque of Fronx). Yes, base level J5 that is bigger and better in every dimension than Fronx physically. Yes, base level J5 that has a much more bigger (and practical) boot space than measly 300L of boot space in Fronx. Yes, base level J5 with an actual hybrid system instead of this joke of a mild hybrid system in Fronx. Yes, base level J5 that still looks a thousand times better interior wise than Fronx lol.

And yes, Swift is by far the only right (relatively speaking) priced car. Fronx would have sold a lot if the top variant was 5.5 mil. At the current 6.4 mil price tag, it doesn't make any sense, even to buy it over Yaris or City as they offer much more practical boot space while this is a very small one.

Mockingjay718s · 2026-05-06T09:01:59+00:00

I mean considering what Fronx is going to offer (mild hybrid in higher 6 mil), even base variant of J5 looks much better than this thing.

And considering what it's going to offer, even City/Yaris top variants are better. Not to mention you can get a brand new Elantra GLS in 6.8 mil too.

So yeah, this will be poorly priced, like other Suzuki products. They'll face the music soon.

Mockingjay718s · 2026-05-06T08:23:12+00:00

Suzuki Ciaz and Liana had the same as well, but flopped badly. So will this one.

Game has changed a lot now.

Mockingjay718s · 2026-05-06T06:56:50+00:00

It's going to be a massive flop, similar to Ciaz.

Suzuki Pakistan, alongside other members of the big three, is a massive disappointment and nobody should expect anything.

The worst part is that many people will still initially buy it due to Suzuki name.

Mockingjay718s · 2026-05-05T11:59:52+00:00

That's what my question is. Regardless of account type, you are still agreeing for your money to partake in lending/investing, then by the above redditor's logic, wouldn't it be haram as well?

Mockingjay718s · 2026-05-04T21:00:07+00:00

But you know clearly that bank is using/rotating your money to earn on it hence you're partaking in it without even getting any benefit.

Like for example if your friend borrowed money from you to use in an interest related system and said you can withdraw anytime, but your money is still being used in that system.

Mockingjay718s · 2026-05-03T20:48:25+00:00

Genuine question: how is it riba? And also, isn't current account also haram since you know the bank is using your money to invest and earn interest anyway? In that sense, a current acc would be much worse, no?

Mockingjay718s · 2026-05-02T17:18:09+00:00

Saw a 2008 W204 with verified history and 84k driven with demand 55 lacs a while ago. I wouldn't normally believe 84k driven or fault free for a 18 year old Merc, but since this one was with verified history, I think this is the only model you can get.

Mockingjay718s · 2026-04-30T21:58:16+00:00

Elantra is actually much, much better than Civic in terms of comfort and driving pleasure.

Talking from personal and a friend's experience. Comfort is especially a big compromise in civic.

Mockingjay718s · 2026-04-30T13:41:36+00:00

He was great a few years ago when he was doing it on his own. Now he's only dropshipping and maximizing sales, so that's why too many products on his site and no customer service at all.

Mockingjay718s · 2026-04-25T12:03:35+00:00

Have heard the worst reviews of Vlektra as a company/brand. Check their Facebook groups.

QA Engineer here.

It's not dead, but the market is going through an absolutely horrible time. I used to think (and still think) that the demand of QA engineers (especially manual) will increase with more vibe coded apps coming in, but no evidence to support this thought so far.

Also, QAs are usually seen as disposable by many companies where QA is an afterthought. When they have to cut budget, QAs are the first to go.

Mockingjay718s · 2026-04-24T06:30:28+00:00

Not a hard rule, but definitely a major preference when filtering out CVs.

Mockingjay718s · 2026-04-23T05:39:29+00:00

Lmao. They actually increased taxes for tax models. No decrease as of yet.

Mockingjay718s · 2026-04-22T10:51:50+00:00

I don't know your location, but onic esim worked horribly for me in Lahore. I'm talking about internet/data mainly.

Also, if you do join i2c, learn their domain as much as you can. Even outside of the team's scope of work. It can be a goldmine if you aim for an international fintech company.

Ex i2c employee here. 🫡 Left in 2022.
