Hi everyone,

I wanted honest insights from seniors pursuing or working after M.Des from top institutes like IITs, NID, IISc etc.

1. What’s the average package after graduation?
2. How are designers doing financially and personally after 3–5 years?
3. How does design compare with tech careers in salary, growth and work-life balance?
4. Do most people feel satisfied with choosing design?

Looking for realistic experiences beyond placement stats.

Hi everyone, just got a call from SF for a TSE role. Previously I worked as an Android Developer.

I wanted to know more about this role and career growth. I know salary is good but wanted to understand the role more in depth, it's work pressure compared to development roles. TSE Roles vs AI as compared to Dev roles vs AI.

Please do provide genuine responses, I have my interview next week.

Also if it helps, this is for BLR, India location ( Pointing it out because diff location would definitely have different experience)
