Salary

You all might obviously guess that I'm speaking about the other two posts in which each of them in their early 20s making 50+ LPA and 70+ LPA respectively. Honestly curious, how do these guys get paid so much? I feel like salaries in IT industry are heavily inflated. I'm from EEE background, trying so hard to find a job in Data field. I've previously worked in my field for 3 years, but the growth seemed pretty less in the long run, hence the switch. Finding a job as a fresher (in IT industry) is so hard man. I'm mainly looking for the startups. They either ask for experience, or the pay is very similar to what I made previously in my field. (which is <10 LPA). Above all, I'm not even getting responses from companies for my applications. So yeah, how do people in their 20s make so much in the IT industry? Is it only FAANGand big corps or applicable to startups as well (like unicorns etc)???

Everyday I keep hearing people getting high salaries in obscure companies. Like some new startups/foreign companies with remote roles/ some private equity firms. Question is how do people discover these opportunities because sometimes 5hese companies don't even have a careers page...

Are there any secret job portals that cater to higher salary bracket openings only? Naukri, foundit etc I don't think get such opportunities.

Recently, I've been observing a concerning trend that I haven't observed before in my 5 years in this industry. A large no. of job openings are coming up at mid-sized companies and startups that require 5+ years of experience but pay 7-12 LPA. One of these companies even used to pay a decent more when I'd applied to it a few years before Does anyone have insights on the root causes behind this trend and how it will shape up the job market going forward? My hypotheses on root causes:- (1) Bad job market (2) Advent of AI

Genuinely curious! Like I graduated about 4 years ago from an NIT and started with 40k pm for an analytics role, now everyone I see is earning atleast 12lpa after tax?

High taxes Office politics commute in traffic And the list goes on Anyways I’m going for further studies but for the next one year I’m looking for good high paying remote jobs which will pay upwards of 70 LPA (cash) If anyone has done or knows someone who has done it please let me know how it can be done Thanks

Seeing a lots of discussion about people complaining about inflated salary, it's quite sad to see such discussions. Take SWE for example, so an swe is expected to move to an expensive city with high travel and food expenses, scant housing options with landlords hiking the price 40-80%, work 8 hrs a day and sometimes even 12. And if he's drawing 20-30LPA he's considered overpaid?! Not to mention the guy has to pay a huge chunk to the government and we're not americans who don't care about their family and have to take care of them as well. We're all overworked and underpaid (if you consider the amount of hrs one work and how much they are paidpaid in abroad) and considering the situation still underpaid. There may be people who might be drawing a high salary and barely do any work (considering they take a lot of leaves and don't put time and effort in work) but that should be the discussion of the inadequate framework for calculating better metrics for productivity and how companies fail to do their due diligence, instead of complaining about high salary. This affects us all and if we all think that salaries are inflated it only hurts us more.

Hey folks! Working as a data scientist with 2yoe rn. What are some orgs which provide 25-40LPA packages to someone in the 2-3 yoe range? What skillsets to they ask for?

I work for a early stage startup (A) right now since about 1.5yrs at base 18lpa (no appraisal since my tenure even though I was told they have a bi-annual cycle, but It never happened) I have another company (B), willing to offer base 28lpa (but will require relocation). I still haven't interviewed at B, and was wondering if i can should talk to A asking for an appraisal? I'm also not sure if i should mention about B at all. How much i understand A will be like let us launch something and then we can talk about appraisals, but this has been going on since a year now and we tend to change the architecture or the methodology everytime we almost have something ready to ship. That being said still I'd rather stay at A than relocate for B at the moment. How should I go about this, any suggestions? TIA

College dropout, 4 years of experience in software dev, stuck at 45k a month in a small foreign startup. Highly skilled, but not getting interview calls from top companies (applying on linkedin). Even when I get interviews, companies ask for my salary expectations and then ask about my current salary. If I say 20 LPA, I don't have the current salary to back this demand.
