1st is not a skill but good college will get you better companies and higher CTC than they would offer at some less good colleges. 
  
 2 freshers don't have much to show except project or intern, so DSA and computer basics helps a lot.

1st - Disagree. Top tier colleges is a preference,not a Norm 
 If you have what it takes, people would be happy to pay top dollar to get you 
  
 2 - agreed

Consultant

Indeed, I mentioned 1st point for the sake of info and because it's really important. 
  
 Same company may offer 5-6 LPA in any normal college, 10L in NIT and  15L in IIT. 
  
 Though, if they're here, they already are in some college, so Point 2.

Software Developer

Skills required for freshers to go atleast 15Lpa.

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

I’ve been working as a SWE for GE in Bangalore for nearly two years. First of all the WLB and culture here is incredible. I honestly can’t believe how great the WLB is over here, I work maybe 20 hours a week on average and am rarely ever stressed about anything. They’re not strict about WFO so I can chill at home most of the time. No fixed timings and I also get a ton of leaves. There’s no micromanagement and the culture is chill and professional. Perks are about average for any large MNC. We have a beautiful company campus with plenty of car parking space for everyone.

Obviously your mileage may vary depending on the your team, it’s possible I just got lucky.

The only con is that the pay is shit. Fresher SWEs are paid around 12 LPA while seniors might earn around 30. Not possible to earn 60+ unless you’re in a leadership position.

My review of GE in Bangalore

Hey guys! I'm in my B.Tech final year from Tier-2 college. Recently I got placed in Deloitte as a Consultant Analyst with 7.6 lpa. Considering the current market scenario and average salaries just wanna know whether 7.6 lpa is decent or less for a fresher.

Avg Salary for a fresher?

I am Fresher completing college in 2022, non engg, Went through a full Stack web dev course in MERN stack from a popular coding bootcamp. Now have around 6 months experience as a freelancer in product based startups. Currently earning around 35-40k per month remotely with actively looking for Full Time opportunities with atleast 5-6LPA. Looking at current market conditions it's becoming very difficult to get it. 

I did get few offers all around 3.5LPA. Last year my peers were getting 6-7LPA easily with my skills and background as fresher.

Any suggestions from your side. Also if anyone hiring with my skill sets please let me know.

This is mostly for people who have spent 10+ years in the industry. I’m sure we all can agree that the hiring and salary boom that we witnessed in 2021-22 is mostly over now. Now it’s more about surviving the job market rather than printing asymmetrical amount of money

But how has it turned out for people who’ve been in the game for too long. I know some people who switched jobs too quickly and are at a higher package but still not content. At the same time, I know a few seniors who’re still in my first company and are happier than ever with the work.

I understand that in Tier-1 cities, the expense itself is more and you’re sometimes forced to switch just to stay afloat. But what would you recommend new joiners based on your experience? Does chasing money in early years help later or only focusing on skills?

Chasing money or skills? What paid off at the end?

Should alter the choice during switches. 
  
 If a switch is taken for money then next switch should be for skill or promotion and so on

Too much negativity everywhere. I just want to find ppl who genuinely like what they are doing. If you are one, what do you do and what makes you happy?

is there someone who actually...LOVES their job?

Am too old to love my job. Relaized am just  a cog in the wheel. I work for money. When i hear the mgmt team talk nonsense about purpose and adding value, i happily smile to his face and laugh in my mind.  
 Am here for the money.  The company can fuck itself.

There’s this chap on GV who posted that they haven’t received any calls for the past 3 months. Has 2.5 years experience with a current ctc around 15L. We spoke to them only to realise their expectations are 32L (26 fixed and 6 in esops)

In a market flooded with resumes due to unfortunate situations, is it fair to have such an expectation and at the same time, call out on GV that they haven’t been getting calls for an interview?

Are high expectations in such a market valid (even accounting for cream deserves takes)

26 fixed seems pretty reasonable, I don’t know how much lower you can expect

What's the average salary of a self taught frontend developer with 2-3 months of experience building clones of famous websites. And how is the job market for tech, majorly frontend?
