Those who are earning more than 1 lakh per month. Share your journey how you reached there and also some tips.
Started in 2016 at 35K. In 2017, got hike, reached 47K In 2018, switched company, reached 55K In 2019, switched company, reached 80K In 2020, no hike In 2021, switched company, reached 120K In 2022, got hike, reached 210K
Switch I made in 2018 almost screwed up my entire career. Worst company and culture. A lot were held on variable pay.
But you are brave,most of the people don't take the leap because they fear bad culture. But in hindsight you would appreciate what you have now (if things are better) and the 35K to 210K happened.good luck 🤞
8x in 6 years. 👏 👏.

As I look back,
There is a lot of luck - need to be in right place at right time and most importantly with right people.
All throughout I had to keep proving that I'm my own pedigree. I don't have an IIT/IIM or MBA advantage and this required me to hustle :)
Hard core hustle in sales and marketing for years.

Technically took 1 switch, the first one was a goofup by HR where a content role was sold as tech role.
Big Buck Girl here. Started my career in HR 2 years and 10 months ago.
Stuck with the same company for about 2 years and 5 months for 8L package. Made a switch 6 months ago to reach 12.5 LPA.
Now at a new org with 16 LPA. The work culture is intense and hectic I only took it up to climb the corporate ladder quicker.
But now because of the company culture I want to leave the corporate world entirely. Money seriously cannot buy happiness. Lifestyle inflation and responsibilities eat away at your CTC in no time. If you love what you do then that’s a whole other thing.

You are doing good mate ... What are you into
Aah long journey bro Worked in a small startup from 2015 - 2020 Started there as a BDE then moved to Digital marketing & Growth then started doing some minor FE development & QA then Product Management.
Now sticking to PM.
Worked my ass off to get into a tier-1 college and graduated with >1lpm :P
2.5 LPM, 2 YoE. Started by freelancing in lowcode tools, now have a full time remote job and do tech consulting part time and all sorts of random integrations, automations, etc.
Started working in 2018 post tier 1 BBA; Series B startup - 12LPA
Then went to work for a large tech company in a sales role - 20LPA (with stocks)
Then joined a VC fund (started at 45LPA, exited at 60LPA) - lol, I don’t know why I get paid so much (although my life is exhausting)
Graduated in 2012 from a Tier 1 college. Got 55k pm. Was in the same company for 5 yrs as the culture was good and got London onsite opportunity as well. Quit at 1.2L per month in 2017 to join a start up as a founding pm, with a pay cut (1L per month). Didnt work out and start up shut shop in 2019. But it gave me a good pm experience in a niche domain. Used that to land a Series A pm role in similar domain for 100% hike in 2020,so was making around 2.3 pm till 2022. Made a move to a senior PM role in the same niche domain but a global established giant at 70% hike. Getting around 3.6 per month right now
If I can do it anyone can. being a women and reaching this seems an accomplishment started with 5000 rs salary no one had faith I could do this.
Wow 🎉🎉 Just curious what was the period and what do you do ?
I come from a poor background, but somehow I worked extremely hard and now I earn decently well (above 60 LPA cash).
My problem is- I don’t mind spending on others. In fact I don’t even think twice before taking my card out and buy...
The wealth should not be inherited.
I'm 30. No house, 10L in cash and 5L in mutual funds. No inherited weath.
Seeing the comment section,I realise I am broke.
I want to understand if you are also satisfied with your compensation?
2.4 lakhs/month. Not a developer. Not in Tier 1 city. Not in FAANG or whatever it’s called now. No lo...
Started working in 2017 (Graduation: Tier 2 College) in hand salary: 28K per Month. Worked for 2.5yrs, had big dreams, didn’t knew what to do, how do I 10x my salary, saw my manager 40yrs old earning 25LPA in the same company. Realised ...
Are you considering 72L esops of razorpay as your own networth? 🤔🤔
