12.5yrs exp . Finally ready to quit due to low package , if retained how to negotiate hike

Having 12.5 yrs of experience , getting least salary in industry which am shameful even to disclose. Finally I have got some courage to switch .. after 6 months of rejection have cleared some interviews (no offer letter though but agreed for 100% hike ). In TCS they are trying to retain me by saying revising salary and onsite opportunity (which I have waited for 4 years and didnot happen) . What should I do next ?

Ask them for 120% hike and written confirmation about Visa process. If they don’t, switch.

Given u have 12.5 yrs understand that you have the power to negotiate hard. You should be like take it or leave it and not them making you feel this way

Get an offer letter from another company then negotiate in tcs. Your position should be' take it or leave it' you should realise that there are 100x opportunities outside of tcs. My friend switched from tcs after 3 years and got a raise from 3.5 lpa to 13 lpa 3yoe. If you are confident about your skills and still stuck at tcs, you are simply limiting yourself. I am probably too young to give you an advice. But with my limited experience of 5 years, corporates are ruthless and you need to learn to take care of yourself.

You never know ur salary may not be the least. But yes a gppd move in getting the new opportunity. But no offer letter yet then you can't say u got the other job. Whatever it is get it in writing from either or both companies.

Resigned but, in Dilemma

I currently resigned from TCS. I wanted to know how much package Accenture can offer me as a Java Developer with 3 years of experience? I already have an offer with 15LPA. Can I ask 16 LPA+ 2 LPA variable??? Should role be on C11 level??...

Choosing next level career

I'm having 12.5 years of experience working in TCS, my client organisation offering me to work in their company with 40% increment from salary.

Please suggest whether I can go with new offer or stay with TCS.
