A tech worker who left a high-paying job in Mumbai says he feels better off financially and mentally after moving back to his hometown. According to the account shared, the worker acknowledges that Mumbai offers career growth opportunities. However, he says the job also left him “mentally exhausted,” despite the higher pay in the city. He reports that he now earns more than he did while working in Mumbai, citing approximately Rs 40,000 as his earnings in his hometown. The worker describes the move as making him feel “richer,” indicating that his overall situation—both in income and well-being—has improved since leaving the Mumbai role. While the reports focus on his personal experience, they do not provide broader data about wages or job availability in Mumbai versus his hometown. The information presented centers on his decision to resign, his comparison of earnings, and his stated reasons for leaving, including reduced stress and greater satisfaction in his current location.
