Hello Everyone,

I have been working with
Kantar (a market research company) for 10 months now. The company has given me permanent work from home. Work is quite good and I am able to learn many things here. Also, my manager is very supportive and patient.
The only thing is about compensation, I have a package of 14 lpa with 6 YOE.
I'm thinking of switching to some company based in Pune.
What should I do?

This is why humans are so stupid. We want everything and not happy with things we have and most importantly, give undue importance to money over happiness . Everyday we see posts about companies like EPAM and startups who paid high salaries and now fire people , but we never learn. Looks like you want to screw your own happiness.. all the best

If you really like the work and have a good wlb why bother to switch in 10 months. Speak with your manager and ask for more pay. At least complete 2yrs and then switch. Just my suggestions.

At least wait till next appraisal before switching. For 6 YOE, close to 18L should have been good. Just ask for a fair hike and if it's not fair then switch.

Switch bro. Don't think too much. If you think too much you won't be able to make decisions.
Before switching decide your priorities so will be easy to chose what companies you want to get into.

Hi everyone,

I feel like I’d benefit from a day off or even half a day off but I’ve only been working for my firm for a month now, plus I have “discretionary time off.” Would it be okay for me to ask for a day off?

Every night for like the past month I’ve been getting incredibly emotional about adulthood. I miss the lack of responsibility, the simplicity of life, friends were always around, and less pressure to be successful.

I’m 3 years out of college now so it’s not like I just started doing this stuff, but I am feeling the exact same feeling as I did when I first started work and just wanted to be back in college. I know I just need to grow up and accept that’s how life is but it’s incredibly upsetting

Started investing in stock market in October 2021. Portfolio has never been in green. And now falling too much since the war. I am sure many are facing the same. How are you guys dealing with it? Are you still positive about Indian stock market's future? What other investment options can we consider?

Most HRs these days ask for previous salary slips/ bonus/hike letters without even quoting their offer. Should we proceed with what they want? Is it ethical? Any pros/cons
Any views?
I am thinking beyond just verifying if the candidate is not lying on the current salary but what if they don't even have the budget to what the candidate has asked as the expectation for the hiring position.
