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?

Dont compare just your ctc with others and switch.
Think about your financial situation, financial goals etc. Your requirement of wlb might differ from others. Even if you switch to another company will you still have the same thought that your ctc is not enough ?

I am not suggesting you not to switch just that you should consider other factors that are specific to you and not just ctc

Yes I have thought about the same.
Things are pretty good, it's just the comparison of compensation .
Thanks :)

Why is education deemed more valuable on a pay scale than experience? Employers will pay someone with a degree and no experience a greater salary, than someone who has exhibited the experience.

Hi all- My SO is currently at a Big4 & was initially preparing for S&O roles at GCP but given the high number of ex MBB consultants hired, they believe its just more competition to get the offer & to eventually get promoted over time.

Instead, they have decided to pursue program manager or cloud consultant roles, which they feel might have a lower barrier to entry from an assessment standpoint. Not sure if the bowl agrees but would like to get your thoughts, thanks!
