Salary Discussion

On GV, u have top 1% of top 1% of crowd. Means 0.01% Elite. They are good at what they do and hence getting yoe x 10 also.

But on an avg it's yoe x 2 or 3 in most of cases.

50 LPA is pretty reasonable for a 5 yoe candidate. How much lower do you expect?

Please have realistic expectations. Salaries depend on the market conditions, skillset of candidate and sector. I agree with @Sherlock007; GV has top talent.

Here's the metric
If you say you want that pay grade to your colleagues/manager and they don't disagree or hesitate, you are worth it

Cos there are two cases:
You are worth it and you don't know it
You aren't worth it and you don't know it

Only way to find out is to go around, claim what you want and see how the 'market' reacts

It was supply vs demand, which seems to be getting settled now. I have seen people joining new places at lesser than current pay this is gonna become normal

I have seen folks managing the interviews and gate crashing. But very soon, they are found out and is in the line of PIP. Join a company with high paying only if you think you have all the experience that’s being mentioned in the JD.

Depends on company too. Like Uber will pay u that if u clear the interviews. Post that if ur perf. isn’t adequate then u may fall in their low performer quota for fire. High reward, high risk. Unless you’re quite skilled then it’s not risky at all

It depends . Some do have skills .
