Hey everyone, I hope you guys are doing awesome.
Here is a small intro, I graduated with IT degree in 2022. Same year I was fortunate enough to crack Google Summer of Code. The next year I appear as a GSoC mentor. After that I took a project from my organization on contract basis. I've been contributing to opensource for about 2.5 years now and I hold a decent position in my org.
Things were not great money wise so I was hunting for a fultime job, after 3 months of continue hustle my resume got shortlisted and I got selected. We initially agreed upon 14 LPA but when offer letter arrived I was offered 7 LPA. I was desperate and was in need of money due to family problems.
I truly think I deserve more, within 3 months I have become release manager and I handle the release. I was able to understand the code base and started contributing. I am involved in few tasks and I am able to deliver things.
One thing I must say is that, people are very very supportive. All of them helps me out at every point of time. My personal growth is just going great. Money is the factor that I think is nagging me.
I would love to hear your thoughts. I appreciate every opinion you guys have.
Thanks
