DevOps Engineer

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

I’m a software engineer at a mid size company. I have 1y3mo of work ex. Appraisals are around the corner, and although the work is great, the pay not so much. I earn less than 10LPA. How much of a hike should I deserve in this market assuming I have done a good job.

Appraisal season

I have been working for my current employer for over 2 years as PM. Most of the employees haven't received any formal appraisal over the years. The company is going through some of the financial stress till last Dec. But it seems things are getting back in order as no more salary delays at my level.

I have heard and confirmed that few have received salary hikes either due to retention or other ways.

Searching for a job over the past 1 year but unable to land any yet. Its getting difficult to manage financially living on rent in mumbai, committing everyday to office and all.

HOW COULD I CONVINCE CEO OR WHAT SHOULD I WRITE THEM TO PURSUE THIS. PLS HELPPPP....🥺

The company did around 10-15% silent layoffs in the last cycle by putting people in PIP. 
My Manager told me that he has pressure on him to put at least 1 or 2 people in PIP, make them leave the company and reduce costs.

Later, the company did as low an appraisal as 2%.

Senior folks are leaving specifically Frontend Developers.

Salaries of a lot of SDE-2 are below 30 LPA.

They have started new positions called Product Developers which will do the same work as SDEs but with a lesser package. PD-1 salary is around 10-12 lakhs and of Lead PD is 20-22 lakhs.

The company is putting itself in a position where it wants people to leave on their own.

There are almost zero perks in the company. 
The team outing budget is a joke which is 2k INR per person per year. That is 500 rupees per person per quarter. 

Also making office mandatory from November.

Razorpay is too smart!

Good thing. Anyways their frontend devs and PMs were doing everything on Twitter except tech.

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

First year of brand marketing job for an early series, well funded fintech startup. 

My previous (first) job had ₹45K (5.5LPA) in hand after a role upgrade, but for this job I had to move out of my city, use up all my emergency fund, have a LOT more expenses now and the in-hand came up to just ₹51K (6.5LPA + 1L bonus + esops)

Had no leverage at the time of signing so didn't say anything. 

The real kicker? I was hired as part of a strat change that the founder pushed for, and my impact has been immediate and undeniable. Our metrics doubled within 6 months of me joining and we're a respected brand in our vertical. 

I am doing gigs on the side to start rebuilding my emergency fund coz salary se barely kuch bachta hai.

I want a comp revision before the appraisal, but too nervous to ask for it.

Could use some advice or just tell me if I'm being a dumbass for having these expectations

I feel I'm underpaid vs my impact

Hey everyone,

I'm in a situation with my company's appraisal policy and could use some outside perspective.

The details:
- The company has a 1-year appraisal policy
- My work anniversary is July 3rd
- Co-founder says new salary will only be credited next month because my anniversary falls "in the middle of the month"

My view:
I should get the new salary this month on a pro-rata basis - the old salary is for 2 days, and the new salary is for 29 days.

Questions:
1. Is the company's stance normal practice?
2. Has anyone successfully argued for pro-rata salary updates in similar situations?
3. Any HR pros here who can weigh in on best practices?
4. How would you approach this conversation with management?

I'm trying to decide if this is worth pushing back on or if I should just let it go. Any advice or similar experiences would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Appraisal Timing Dispute - Need Advice

Product Manager

Had my appraisal meeting with the manager today and the feedback I received don't put me in a good light. The manager wants me to be more proactive and ask for more work. In the last 2 years more than half of my team has quit for whatever reasons and even with the increased workload that I completed on time, I have received a rating of "partially achieved". What's even weirder is that the rating was given before the appraisal meeting even started. The manager had made up their mind. 

I see the market and feel grateful for a relatively safe job and a relatively fine package but this event makes me feel under-appreciated at work. My team lead still treat me like a fresher even though I have 2+ yoe and assigns high priority tickets to other team members. Given the fewer complex tasks in my bucket, the manager feels I'm not up to the task which is far from truth. 

I want to make a switch and move on to better opportunities before long but I am worried whether this merit report will sour my chances when the HR asks for them during interviews / onboarding.

Have you had similar experiences? What did you do? 

Also, am I wrong in being worried about the appraisal report affecting my chances at new companies?


TL;DR: Does a rating of "partially achieved" impact chances when applying to new jobs?

Unsatisfactory appraisal

I am working as a SDE -1 for a startup for more than a year now, and I am confused what should be hike percentage after getting promoted to SDE - 2 that I should expect or should demand as a bare minimum?

PS. I had 6 working days for nearly a year working 10-12 hours a day.

Is 10% appraisal good for top performers or is the company lowballing?

What is your appraisal % ?

It's the appraisal time of the year and we are preparing both notes and speech. How best can one navigate the conversation to always push for more ?

Is it possible to negotiate for a higher hike during my appraisals? 
I’ve never done this. Just asking for opinion/advice.

<Appraisal> Do salary negotiations work

I'll go first: "I want you to focus on doing good work and not on how much money you're making." Achchha aur mera rent kaun dega?

What's the dumbest thing your boss has said?
