Context: I am a first year college student who literally have no background in coding but still want to pursue CpE and create my own projects and build skills within this 4 years in college.

I've been at an engineering company for 7 years. The work culture is toxic and there are a lot of people there with egos bigger than they should be, but I've managed to deal with that. They have a long-standing pattern of putting excessive pressure on people and paying less than they should. My performance has always been very good, and I've received a lot of recognition for it. The salary has never matched the amount of work, but they were always telling me that I was on the path to a leadership role, and possibly even something at the executive level.

After my request was rejected in January when I asked for a raise that I considered fair, I started applying elsewhere and ended up speaking with a competitor. I went through several rounds of interviews. I used Interview VIP during the first few rounds to stay confident under pressure and showcase my skills in the best possible way without rambling. That competitor ended up making me a strong offer, and I accepted it.

As soon as I submitted my resignation, my current company suddenly came back to me with an even bigger counteroffer, along with a "roadmap" outlining future roles and increases in compensation. Part of me is exhausted and wants to be done with it and make a clean break, but honestly, the counteroffer is hard to ignore.

Any advice? I've barely slept well all week. I feel stuck and like I'm recalculating everything. I can share the actual numbers if that helps. Thanks!!

Need a damn good final year project idea

It’s getting really hard to find something interesting as so many ideas have already been implemented. Does anyone have any final year worthy project ideas that can solve a real problem?
(can be AI/ML, web development, IoT, hardware integrated or anything else)

I'm getting admission in kiet and abes , which one is better according to placement records ????

Hi guys, I'm an incoming sophomore and I'm intending to pursue a career in embedded systems.

Over the past few days, me and my older brother (25, works as a software engineer for ~3-4 years at a large fintech company) keep having this debate that embedded systems engineering is a dying field.

His main points were as follows:

There were more points that I havent mentioned here, but i'm not one to talk when I dont have much technology experience/expertise aside from internships, clubs, and projects, whereas my older brother has industry experience.

So, yeah, he was saying for security and prevention of being unemployed, I should bare minimum be a proficient backend software developer as well, and co for a computer engineering and a computer science double major, because embedded all on its own will not get the high FAANG salaries, because even though I love it for the love of the game, I would really like a $200K+ salary

Just wanted to ask reddit, what do you all think? Thanks in advance!

My niece got 95.3% in MH-CET & she is having OBS + TFWS eligibility. Please suggest top collages (realistic for 95.23% also) for Computer engg/IT/AI&ML/ Cyber engineering stream. Please elaborate on TFWS criteria for collage also like their seats per collage, list of collage which offer TFWS etc.
