Trying to decide if I should relocate to Bangalore

20 years ago
I live in the US and my company has asked me to do an assignment in Bangalore for 18 months to 2 years. I'm trying to decide if it's the right thing to do or not:
-- could I bring my dog & cat safely (no kids just pets)
-- is the medical care good should I get sick
-- I've read that most people have helpers like cooks, people to clean, sometimes a driver -- is that true and what is the cost?
-- is it expensive/difficult to buy a used car?
-- is the pollution/dust bad?
-- what is monsoon season like? does it rain constantly every day and flood constantly?
-- I read that there are lots of pubs with good beer -- is that true?
-- what is the water situation -- meaning can I a long shower?
-- how often does the power go out -- frequently?
