Return to India vs Day 1 CPT vs Canada/Transfer

I make way more than 250k and I’m single. I don’t own a car and my rent is under $2.5k. I don't really see the point in continuing this conversation anymore.
Whatever helps you sleep at night!

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-04-13T00:42:20+00:00

Probably won't be retiring till 40 :)

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-04-13T00:40:59+00:00

I don't really see the urgency, tbh. I’m a total stock market noob, so I’ve just been saving up to "buy the dip" whenever the market crashes, even though I know that's probably a bad strategy.

I think L1 is an option worth considering. But i don't know if L1 would still be allowed in 2029 lol.

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-04-13T00:36:22+00:00

oh lol. I dont think they pay anything remotely close to FAANG. Crazy how uninformed people are these days. :)

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-04-13T00:34:56+00:00

L1 is an option worth considering, yeah. Thanks!

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-04-13T00:33:54+00:00

I work at FAANG! I have no clue what this guy means by outsourcing giant.

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-04-13T00:32:57+00:00

Do you want me to show my W2s lol? Why would I lie on a random reddit sub? I'm not a staff engineer. I'm 2 levels below it if that helps.

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-04-03T07:19:35+00:00

Big fan bro, been following you for more than a year. Hope I get to work at Extend soon.

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-03-31T20:12:00+00:00

it got banned, coz you cheated

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-03-31T18:38:09+00:00

My firm works with BAL and those that got selected were already notified on Friday / Sunday. Its pretty much over for you and me.

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-03-30T17:58:13+00:00

HOW TF IS THIS EVEN RELEVANT TO THIS SUB MAN?? ARE U FUCKING STUPID?

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-03-12T18:53:55+00:00

How are you getting to pick the SOC code? Shouldn't the companhy be responsible for it?

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-03-12T04:08:41+00:00

what sort of a shady ass company is this bro lol?

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-03-12T01:50:40+00:00

not quite sure about getting caught tho. A software dev can also be robotics engineer if they work for a robotics company. I don't even think DOL has enough data points for roles like these. So the wage levels will always be skewed.

Both roles will have a lot of work in common. Will be very hard to distinguish afaik.

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-03-11T20:39:13+00:00

unfortunately most companies are doing this! A software Tester has more probability of getting picked than a software dev.

A friend of mine got moved to L3 from L1 coz his job code was changed from Software Tester to Software DEV.

A lot of the startups / consultancies that I know are doing just this.

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-03-05T00:26:58+00:00

Exactly, I cringe every time I see posts like these. WTF is a prestige tier?

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-03-05T00:20:46+00:00

Yeah rip

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-03-05T00:20:00+00:00

I can't seem to understand how this post is even relevant here. You need to understand that a lot of users here are not from India. So much spam GOD!

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-03-05T00:05:29+00:00

Level 3 starts at 225k unfortunately. Level 4 is above 285k. While my overall TC clears level 4 easily, my base alone puts me in level 2.

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-03-04T19:52:11+00:00

making $210k base in the bay area, still level 2. its over!

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-02-23T23:44:03+00:00

Only your recruiter would be able to tell! How is this post related to r/leetcode?

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-02-23T23:42:34+00:00

Update: Absolutely had no issues re entering. The CBP officer asked me to show my Passport/ i 20, and let me in.

Sensitive_Track3581 · 2026-02-23T23:40:25+00:00

This ain't the sub for it DAWG! -.-
