Decision Making

I'm a 30Yo with 7years in the same industry however at only 6LPA. For someone with this much experience i surely deserve more hence i started looking out for opportunities and got a 9LPA offer. When I put down my papers the current company has promised appraisal but are not confirming how much will I get and when will it start from. And now I'm stuck because the new offer is running out and my current company is simply binding time. I'm really clueless and ffs i really need to start making good decisions. #Salary

Is this even a debate at this point? Switch.

Don’t let companies roll over you like this.

Also, I’d still continue interviewing and get another offer on top of 9 LPA. Because you’re severely underpaid.

I agree man but I've changed like 6 companies in 7 years and I'm really worried about the stability part in my resume. I have 0 salary negotiation skills 😭

Learn to negotiate salaries. This gives the best ROI in just 2-3 hours of work.

Switch. Old company is giving you gajar. 🥕 Keep switching every 1-2 years from now on.

I was in same boat a year back. Harsh reality, but stop trusting people so blindly. Companies are here to make profit, they will not take one day to let you go. You shouldn't think twice either.

They will never be able to match market, and never give you anything in writing

Do yourself a favour, move out immediately

Thats true every employee is replaceable especially in the fintech industry that I'm in people move on with a relatively high speed

How much % hike do you even take at each switch?

“One in hand is better than 2 in the bushes”.

Don’t be loyal to any company specially when they are severely underpaying.
