I applied via the career portal and it was the Hiring drive of August. The recruiter mentioned that this is the maximum offer, as my current compensation is considered “low,” despite having 2+ years of experience. The role involves intense on-call duties: 1 week of 24/7 on-call every 5–7 weeks. Work-life balance and nature of the project don’t seem appealing.
