I'm currently working in a product-based MNC (like Microsoft/Adobe/Oracle/Salesforce) with around 2 years of experience, and I have offers from two Indian HFT firms.
Profile: 8.5+ CGPA, Top 3 IIT Circuital

1. Bangalore based HFT for a C++ role (~40% compensation increase)

2. Gurgaon based HFT for an Applied AI Engineer role (~85% compensation increase)

From a long-term career perspective, which would you choose? How are the growth opportunities, learning in these two paths?

Would really appreciate advice from people working in HFT or who have made a similar decision.

I have an offer to move from a product company to an early indian HFT firm for C++ infra role with around 40% comp increase.

​ Current profile: 30LPA, 2 years, Tier 1 circuital

​ For people who have made a similar switch, was it worth it in the long run? I am interested in the role by the way

​ Looking for advice from community
