Hey Ladies, i’m currently working as a Jr SQA Test Engineer in NJ, with almost 1 year of experience in the US but have 3 more years of experience in different country. I believe based on feedback from my team, my boss and myself that i should be more of a mid level. Currently my job includes some automation but mainly manual testing, but i also have studied Selenium using Java and have my certificate from NYC. What should be my salary range?

I'm a Senior SE I. My team is hiring for a Staff SE, which is 2 levels above me. I want to apply but my boss' boss said I'd have to be a Senior II first. I told my manager it'd take the new hire at least 6 months to learn about the system, which I'd help them with that, so I'd work at the Staff level without being paid for it. My boss said he'd bring it up with his boss.

I just got an off cycle raise this month, and I don't want to sound greedy. How'd I counter if I was declined again?

Hi fishes! Nagarro declined the counter offer letter ₹33,00,000 + shares worth 4.5LPA

I've 6+ yrs experience (mobile dev.)

Nagarro offered 18LPA. Initially I told HR for 22 but he mentioned 18 into their internal portal to their senior so after clearing all interview rounds I got 18.

When I asked the HR, he told me to accept it for now and bring the counter offer letter so they can revise offer letter.

But now they declined. Weird.

Is there a recommended path here? Long one, finished in the comments.

So I make around 35% below market for my titled role. My employer used “startup” as the reason when I was hired, but they’ve finally stopped using that excuse. I was fine with it, because I was promised a promotion within 12 months due to scope change. I’ve now been promoted twice, but in responsibility only. My boss said it’ll be another 18-24 months until my director promo is approved and goes into effect. More in comments

I’ve always gotten the advice that when you want to switch jobs you should take interviews from places you’re not actually interested in, so you can understand your value in the market and have better negotiating power.

I’m doing that rn - took a couple interviews to gauge my skills, my market value, and see what I need to work on for interviews that I actually care about.

However, I feel really guilty about wasting their time and going all the way knowing I’ll just say no at the end. Wwyd?
