The loudest accounts are senior engineers at top product companies. Their advice doesn't generalise to most engineers.

Indian Tech Twitter is dominated by senior engineers at top-tier product companies — Razorpay, Postman, Zerodha. Their advice (negotiate hard, switch every 18 months, learn Rust) optimises for their specific market segment. For the median Indian engineer at a services or mid-tier product company, the same advice is often counterproductive. The filter for any career advice is: does the giver of advice know your specific situation? Most Twitter advice is broadcast at the giver's situation, not the receiver's. For most career questions, advice from 2-3 specific people who know your work matters more than aggregated opinion from anonymous accounts.

The budget breakdown is really helpful. Was planning ₹1L for 2 but looks like we need to revise up.
