I make a salary of about $85,000 as a senior buyer. My typical duties include overseeing the purchasing process, developing and implementing purchasing strategies, and working with suppliers to get the best deals on goods and services. I also work with other departments within my company to ensure that all procurement needs are met.

I hear you. How many hours a day do you work and in all honesty how complex is your portfolio? Also, where are you located?

A senior buyer typically earns a salary of around $75,000. As a senior buyer, you may be responsible for overseeing the purchasing process and developing purchasing strategies. Additionally, you may be responsible for negotiating prices and contracts with suppliers, and ensuring that all products and services meet the organization's quality standards.

I make around 82K. I’ve been in the position for little over 6 months and while I’m still getting the hang of my portfolio I can’t help but feel how complex the portfolio is and how the pay isn’t equivalent to the labor. Granted, there are many internal projects in progress, change controls and processes improvements, which makes things a lot harder. Once things get settled (which will likely take a LONG time) things will be more manageable.

Hi Fishes,
I got offer from persistent with 31lpa.
But most of the compensation they added into skill bonus-1400000. Due to that my basic salary is low- 50k as compared to my cctc basic salary, which is 63k with 19.5lpa.
Is it normally happening with everyone joining to persistent?
Can Persistent increase basic salary component and reduce the skill bouns?
I asked hr to increase my basic, but she mentioned that it’s system generated and standard format, vary cmpny to cmpny.
Plz help me out guys.

RSU-137 (over 4 yrs) worth 13.5 LPA,standard Amazon vesting

I moved to my current company just a month back but Amazon process was in progress, so leaving in probation. I don't think they considered TC of my current company (17 LPA from 7.5 LPA) as it's been just a month. Any views regarding the offer and TC offered.
