Rent increased.
Groceries increased.
Electricity bills increased.
College fees increased.
Everything got more expensive.

If inflation went up...
If the cost of living went up...

Is it finally time to increase fresher salaries?

Do you think Google is still the dream company for freshers in 2026?

@CodeWithAmann That list is a good reminder that compensation isn’t only “MAANG vs rest” anymore
English

@tanujDE3180 Because AI learns patterns, not guarantees - rare edge cases outside its training can trigger unexpected failures

@SakshiSugandhi A hidden 24-hour TTL/expiration (token, cache, session, or scheduled job) is likely crashing the service on a fixed daily cycle
