Fishes, should I be skeptical if a company offers x+5, when the expected was x. In this case the company is a Big Bank.

There are few standards within the company that such role has a minimum CTC.. Or you might be under selling yourself..

Similar thing happened to me as well, turns out I was under selling..

depends on what is X, if X is under 20L then yeah it’s a bit off but then again could be their pay band for that particular role, if it’s more than 20L then it’s dust, don’t think much about it.

Preparing to give notice to my current firm. Accepted an amazing opportunity to lateral at a more prestigious firm (better compensation, lower billables, and shorter commute).
I’m excited to make this jump, but it’s still bittersweet for me because the partners at my current firm are truly amazing and I have learned a lot from them over the past few years and will miss them a lot. Any insight on the best way to have this convo without burning bridges? Thanks!

Hi! This is my first post. Nice to meet you all! I would like to know how certifications like AWS Solutions Architect and/or Azure Administrator 104 (got both) impact the yearly compensation, mainly in Spain (Barcelona). I have just graduated and have under one year experience in the field (cloud consultant). I would like some advice as everything is pretty new to me.

Thank you!

P.D: I am pretty happy in my company,I am learning a lot :) I do not plan to move out.

Hello Guys,
I need some help in deciding what to do. My total YOE is 5.6. My client is impressed with my work and asked my company to imitate H1. They even initiated my H1 but it was not picked in the lottery. I was depressed and wanted to leave my company but my manager assured that they will retry it again next year if not picked they would even try L1. I was concerned with my current CTC so he gave me a 32% hike just to retain me making my CTC as 13 LPA. My question here is is it worth waitng
