HRMS mailed after processing salary - I see what you did there 😏- Grapevine

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

Guess which company?
This is a BLR based gaming “startup” that employs more than 300 people.
They delay salaries on the last day of month at 4:30pm by making an HR newbie to post a random ass sorry message.

What are the employees supposed to do?
Isn’t salary disbursement the highest priority task for a finance team ?

These morons boast a “Great Place to Work” tag on their main door.
What a waste 😂

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

I've applied for a job, Can HR's get to know what was my salary in the previous company? Like through other means, a platform or such? I know they can get to know the PF deduction but what about exact salary

Can HR's know the real salary

Looks like Zomato did a clickbait placement drive 🥴

So, what really happened here?

Program Manager

Welcome to Consulting's Private Community

I'm puzzled by the relatively low compensation for HR professionals. Despite having 1.8 years of experience in HR and a current CTC of 4 LPA, I've found that potential employers are not offering a significant salary increase - not even 10%. I'm a postgraduate in Social Science from Jamia. Majority of companies I have applied there max budget is 30K only. What steps can I take to enhance my earning potential and secure a better CTC/hike on my CTC?

I got the confirmation about my tentative selection for the position. But HR said he will reach out soon but its been 6 days, he hasn’t reached out! I wrote him a message but no replies either.

He asked for my payslips, offer letter, and increment letter but has not responded yet. I was due for discussions for my salary which have not happened yet! Shall I move on or wait for this? Is there any hope?

HR DELAYING THE PROCESS

Associate Consultant

Hey there Grapevine Community,

I've noticed a lot of chatter here about SDEs and PMs, so I thought I'd mix things up a bit.

I'm an HR Executive (aka Chief Happiness Officer 😁) at an early-stage startup, and I'm curious to hear from all of you.

What do you think are some innovative or unconventional strategies you've seen or experienced in HR that have really made a difference in your workplace?

Looking forward to your stories and ideas!

Cheers!

Shake things up!

I got an offer from Accenture and they have not provided any salary breakup. Just only this.

What would be my in-hand salary in the new tax regime?

P.S.: HR is not responding to my calls.

What wil be the in-hand salary?

Welcome to Banking & Finance's Private Community

I appeared for job interview at HDFC bank Moti Nagar Branch New Delhi for back end operations loans disbursement on 18 April 2024, after a week I got a call from person who took my interview that you have been selected and a link has been shared to your mail kindly upload your document. I have uploaded but now till date I haven’t received offer letter and joining date and HR continuously saying that HDFC has freezes their hiring PAN India.
It’s been more than 2 months, does anyone know what the situation is ?

Till when hiring will be freezed

so i got through the interviews and the HR is currently asking for my current company's offer letter.

I'm not sure why they would need that or if I can refuse that in any way.

Happy Friday Grapeviners, 

TL;DR: We are launching our biggest product since Grapevine itself. We’ve worked really really hard on this one.

Salaries is now live as the ‘middle tab’ on the Grapevine app

Why we built this: Getting paid is one of the main reasons why we work, and our goal with Grapevine was always to solve for information asymmetry 

With this we set out to make a product with the following principles at its core: 
1. Make Salary information visual 
2. Focus on freshness
3. Bring out the story behind the data 
4. Help people assess their own salaries v/s global data

Two requests: 
1. Please give us feedback on how we can improve 
2. Please please please share this with your friends, network and followers

Enough of me. Now go check it out :)

[Grapevine’s Biggest Update] Launching Salaries on Grapevine

P.S: It’s only available on the latest build of the app - please do update  
  
 Also, this is just a small start 
 Today, the product works well for software engineers, kinda well for product managers and designers.  
 But as we gather more salary data points - this only gets better and more actionable :)

I've noticed a pattern where HRs from mediocre companies are extremely arrogant and ask unnecessary questions. Whether it is from their tone of voice, to asking ridiculous questions about a candidate's personal life and things that are already on the resume, why do they act so holier than thou? Now FAANG adjacent companies and their HRs/ first point of contacts are always empathetic and very clear in asking sensible, relevant questions. Why don't companies realise that their first point of contact is what affects their brand and hiring unqualified folks makes it worse. Have you ever noticed this? What do you think can be done to make this/ candidate experience better?

Why are HRs from mediocre companies so arrogant?

HRs in mid places are usually coming from really small / unknown companies and feel like they’ve made it hence the arrogance. Folks in big/decent companies usually have come from wonderful education bgs and workplaces and if not, have worked hard enough to reach where they are. That humbles you, I feel.

Marketing Creative

I am growing my hairs long, so they have become a little curly. My HR is asking me to either maintain my hairs with an hairband or get an haircut. Is this right to teach someone how to maintain hairs in corporate.

Corporate Culture?

AMA about what actually goes behind those rangolis in the HR dept and work that better compensated people in HR do.

HRBP AMA

I have been attending interviews for this company for 3 weeks with around 5 rounds of technical interviews. I did well in most technical interviews and okay in one. And HR said I am selected but they are trying to get an idea of my fitting in the role or some shit. The management is asking them to position me in one level lower than what was mentioned when they were hiring as i am not suitable for tech lead position(I would agree though and I am okay with being positioned less as i am more interested in IC roles). And was asked to reduce CTC as well.

So they are providing 5 lakhs less than what i asked and i also have another offer 3 lakhs more than this offer. This offer is remote but the other offer is wfo. I don't hate wfo but wfh would be good as it is flexible.

How do i convince the HR to get what i asked early? I am thinking of walking away if they low ball.

Web Developer

So one company HR after a lot of talking finalised x amount 

But send me a salary structure screenshot of 2x and told me to consider this as an offer letter. Said she will give me an offer and appointment letter on joining day. In cc official company HR email and other HRs are present 

I replied yes. Coz if they wanna give me more I don't have any problem right

Now she comes and says sorry it was mistakenly sent and considers the below x salary structure

What shall I be doing here?

Offer surprise!

DevOps Engineer

I am new to the work force, 1.5 YOE. I want to understand the logic behind HR’s ghosting their candidates.
