I managed, I'm a Senior, I thought I was below, spoke to a few partners, not just one, I was factual told them what a Senior with my education and experience in my town should be paid. Got a 50% raise. No joke, ha! But of course I'd had a great year, was super well rated, great reviews, etc.

Yes but ended up leaving anyway. Nothing more stressful than all those conversations and never felt more vulnerable in my career

I switched firms with a 10% increase at the same level. My partner at my old firm said I should've asked for a signing bonus.

I just spoke with a recruiter about this, and he said 10-25% is typical.

Oh oops. Just re-read.

I tried this too, but did not succeed because of our new cohorts model.

P2 re-read above "without an offer in hand".

No worries, I'm assuming if this ever does happen it's extremely rare. Maybe I'll look for another practice I "might" join...

Pwc3 WOE 👏

When I was following up on the status the HR with whom I had my salary discussion asked me to contact 2 other HRs. I only have their mail IDs . Now I am clueless about how to proceed . Can anyone help me on this ? Also , is AmCAT an elimination test??? Please guide me through

Hello Fishes,
I am much stressed.. it’s only been 5 months to join Capgemini. I joined in as cyber security consultant with good package.
However, the work I do the tricks, logics and solutions I share with team to apply in the project… all are of no use when discussed with the architect guy. The whole team rely upon the wordings/solutions suggested by him only. It feels like my skill/knowledge and experience is of no use.
I feel like what am I doing here….? Any suggestions please.
