Hi fishes,
I am planning a switch so was going through some salary data for a software engineer. My ex-senior manager recommended me a website: Growceed.com which helped me a lot in getting clarification about a lot of things but I am in doubt whether the average salaries of software engineer mentioned on Growceed.com really that much in top MNC companies.

I’m glad I made the switch, but progression is notably slower. As a side note, when referring to an example, or a list of examples, the correct abbreviation is e.g. The abbreviation i.e. is used to restate something said previously in order to clarify it’s meaning (e.g. “If you are a millennial (i.e. born between 1981-1996) then you probably remember what you were doing when you learned about the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the US.”).
Yes base comp increase was about 30%. Bonus went from 5-8% to 10-15%.
The risk is that many of these high Flyer companies may crash and burn. Guess who gets fired first - the grunt analysts! Second, recession could lead to the job market being less active / aggressive. Third, the grass is not always greener
Certainly is possible. But if you are unhappy in public and looking to go into industry, I wouldn’t sit on my hands and wait for a recession to come and go. Make sure you’ve got a solid emergency fund, do good work and don’t burn bridges. The rest is out of your control and so you might was well pursue the career/life you really want. I know people in PA who in ‘08 / ‘09 were laid off. No one is immune if shit really hits the fan.
