GF salary Vs. My salary
Me and my gf have been dating for 5 years. Back in 2020, I started my career with a package of ₹5 LPA. Over the years, I’ve reached ₹22 LPA in 2025. She started her journey with ₹3 LPA(2020) and is now earning ₹8 LPA(2025). We’ve been in a live-in relationship for around 2 years, and the idea was to share expenses equally. But, equal sharing never really happened. If we go to a café she likes, especially with friends, I will pay the entire bill. We only split the house rent and grocery bills. I told her lots of time to cut down these costly cafe expenses or earn more money, increase your package, study and work hard, but.....she is now in her comfort zone. Being from a tech background, I have seen people upgrade their skills and package for a good life in metro cities. I am ready to support her in her studies, but she is like I am earning enough for myself.... No, you are not. I love her, but I don't know how to overcome this issue between us. Please suggest!

1. Free Lunch. 2. Salary on time. 3. Your peers are supportive and friendly. (most) 4. GeeksforGeeks' brand value has really helped the employees here in switching but that value is also on some serious decline.

Dislikes

1. Toxic and insensitive management. They will lay you off just before your marriage. You will be frowned upon whenever you ask for a leave or WFH. (They were good till 2023, IDK what got into them after that) 2. No new ideas for product growth, hence the employees' growth has also gone massively slow. 3. Their focus has shifted from quality candidates to interns for better "cost benefits." 4. The work doesn't matter, you being visible on your seat matters. 5. Most of the star employees have already been laid off or they have resigned from the company. 6. Shift timings are of 10 hours each day now. GfG is an example of what a wasted potential looks like as a company.

Don't work in Geeksforgeeks. There is no job security. Upper management takes instinctive bad decisions. They are ruthless. They don't consider loyalty and honestly. Whoever buttered them they will stay. They fired whole of the team who built gfg from the scratch. Fired everyone and hired interns. Whatever job opening are ther in job portal are all expired and jobathon they are fake marketing it because in backend there are no such job openings. They are fooling market , candidates and HRs

Dislikes

Work culture is pathetic. At any given point of time they will change your team. They will not pay than your worth. They don't provide tissues at washroom (apparently cost cutting) , lights will get off at day time (apparently energy saving). CEO after first round of firing no one will get fired and from next day second round of firing started. I recommend no one even interns don't join this toxic company

Dislikes

From top management founder to managers, all are try to suck employee. This is like sugar, a sweet poison which looks good but in long run you will loose all your skills. I will not say you don't join this company but don't stay here for more than 6-12 months. Just join and find the new one as soon as possible.
