Hey folks, so I am a 2022 graduate and I'll try to make this short as much as possible:
* I was giving interview at a company for backend dev
* Over the period got promoted from MTS to SMTS with CTC correction from 12.8 to 14.74 at my current company
* Last Friday did the cultural fitment round
* After following up got a call from HR saying they'll update me by this weekend
* However I updated her with the information regarding role change and CTC correction
* Now she asked what'll be your expectations
* First, she asked whether I could shift with the same CTC, but I was hesitant, she took it as no.
* I asked what is your range? She said there is no range
* I told her as per market standard, she said I'll take 30% to herself as of now
So I need help here:
* what can I tell her? Or should I tell her something before the weekend or not?
* Should I ask her if it'll be senior role as I am a SMTS now?
Also, this is the current salary range as per Glassdoor of this company:
* Sr. backend: 25
* SDE: 15 + 6
Additional info for my current company:
* My manager said that my base will be matched with SMTS in April which is 18-24
* Also heard the news that the company will not give appraisal to anyone in April
