Hi Fishes
In spite of having applied for many jobs at Citi (including the referrals), I have not got any calls from Citi.
I do not understand what's wrong with my profile ! I do get calls from other Captives but not from the Citi.
Are there any hacks to get calls from Citi ? Citi @citibank

You are getting 20+ with 7yr exp. That’s a decent salary. Also not everyone get a lot in IT. With 7yr exp you can say avg salary in IT might be between 20-30(which you already getting). Also people with 7 yr exp have good techical knowledge and years of hands on exp for which they might be getting 30+. If you move to IT you might become good in tech but it will be tough to get those hands on exp. Better grow in your current skillset
Don't know why people are just sampling people at the top of the food chain and assuming that everyone is having an exorbitant salary.
If I was tier 1 MBA, I would have been earning above 50LPA. And No my pay is not above market, its just at market. Even a tier 3 Engineer can earn this much easily with 4 yoe. I see IT professionals on this forum with 4 to 8 yoe post their super impressive pay offers of 36LPA to 60LPA. This is impossible to touch at my field, hence switching profile is the only option.
Are you tier 1 mba? Seems like you're getting over and above the market range. I have 6 Yoe and getting under 20.

My friend the grass is always greener the other side. Choose wisely live well!
IT is a bit volatile. The skills in demand today can go out of demand tomorrow, and then you might not have many opportunities later on. In the end you could be pigeonholed to a technology and you might find it very difficult to move out.
Having said that, maybe analytics could be a good choice for you. Think R, Python, Tableau, etc.
What is so funny? Its because of below posts that makes non IT folks switch over. I see these posts almost everyday. Why is grass always greener in the IT industry?

There will always be that one person in some other field/company who will earn more than you with lesser exp than you. Keep chasing them! Btw, there are so many layoffs happening in IT industry, did you have any chance at looking at them? Is your ind experiencing the same?
