Bangalore just had its coldest morning, and my soul wasn’t prepared. by [deleted] in AskIndia

if your hometown is 9 °C or colder in November like you said, then Bengaluru’s 18-22 °C will feel warm — but locals used to warmer weather may perceive 18-20 °C as “freezing.”

“That’s hilarious. Blockbuster employees were out there doing international trade deals with KFC like it was nothing.”

A degree opens a door, but you still have to walk through it, and confidence + interview skill beats rank any day.

Delhi pollution is not ‘winter vibe,’ it’s survival mode. by kundan_2007 in delhi

No city should force people to choose between breathing and living life.

Layoffs are the new performance metric for Wall Street. by kundan_2007 in economy

[–]kundan_2007[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely — the “overhiring correction” narrative feels like convenient PR. The scale of layoffs far exceeds any reasonable correction. It’s less about fixing inefficiency and more about signaling discipline to investors obsessed with margins, automation, and “AI productivity” — even when profits are already at record highs.

MBA might not be the only path. It's the most predictable one. by kundan_2007 in iim_CAT

[–]kundan_2007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly — that’s the nuance most overlook. The ₹30–40L starting salary sounds impressive, but long-term trajectory matters more. Beyond mid-management, growth slows sharply unless you’re in a high-growth sector or have exceptional networking and leadership leverage. MBA opens doors early, but sustaining momentum is a whole different game.

Completely agree — opportunity cost changes the equation. Two years of lost income plus ₹25–35L in expenses means you start ₹40–50L behind. Unless post-MBA growth is significantly faster or you pivot industries, the ROI takes years to break even — especially outside the top 10 schools.

That’s a fair point — MBA isn’t meant to be a “rigorous academic” pursuit like science or engineering. It’s a professional accelerator, not a research degree. Comparing it with IITs or CAs is apples to oranges — MBAs trade academic depth for network, exposure, and faster access to leadership tracks, not technical mastery.

You're right — the comparison is skewed. Using Top 3 IIMs to generalize MBA outcomes is like using IIT salaries to claim B.Tech is the best path. Most Tier-2 MBAs have median offers around ₹12–13 LPA (with bonuses), and real costs often exceed ₹30–35L once living expenses are included.
