Hi Fishes,

I have 6 YOE. Joined TechM (at 10.5lpa) on 2021 Sep.

I have an offer from CTS (20lpa). Now that I've decided to leave, my PM has agreed to increase 5lpa and is very confident that I will travel onsite in Q1, next year for 2 years (he is ready to get this emailed by his manager).

I am having second thoughts TBH. What would you have done in my situation, and why?

If they are giving salary hike then wait for 6 months. If you fly onsite then well an good else again try for a switch

You’re saying that going to onsite in Q1, are you done with all travelling documents first if yes then stay back if you’re seeking to visit onsite. If you are looking for pay only then ask your manager to give same hike that you got from congnizant don’t be in dilemma what exactly you want first be clear on that

I will suggest do not trust your PM so easily. same situation was with me. He told me to revoke with less refitment and will promote me in next appraisal cycle. But that day never comes in my life.
I got an good offer from good company approx 200% hike. And manager still saying plz revoke i will do the same in next appraisal cycle.

so don't believe them so easily.

i believed and experienced.

Now it's your turn.

Bhai first thing they already underpaying you as per your exp. Now CTS offering you almost 3 times your exp which should have been offered by them. Aur bhai we Indians are not beggars you can directly apply for outside opportunities by yourself. Leave that org bhaad me jaye saale paise bacha ke rakhe honge at your exp toh wahi budget ab use kar rhe h tumko hi dene ko

Ok

But in case we don't have visa of that country. Do companies help in that?

One solution I can suggest you is ask your PM to increment your salary effective Apr'22. That will give you some 2.5L of arrear. Also get onsite email in written, don't sign any bonds and start looking for job from Feb onwards. if they don't fulfill their commitment, you can switch on top of your 15 LPA package.

smart

Am here in CTS for last 8.8 years and can tell you from exp that they have abundance of onsite opportunities in CTS too. In fact they have one of the largest no of openings onsite among Indian it firms as they don't bid for domestic projects. So would suggest you to ask CTS recruiter to provide you onsite assurance on top of CTC too. Also would suggest don't stay with current company if they are not matching with offer. Ask them to match current offer and then provide additional benefits (onsite, promotion etc) else don't stay.
