When I graduated mainframe was on peak and now cloud and gen ai ai ml but the confusion which I am facing here is I am not receiving calls as I got at 38 years and the salary is damp less to market only 12 l
I8 years back it was a good one but in 8 years inflation went up our car became old .house was not enough for a grown family and financial requirements omg now this salary seems to be less .but one thing this is enough I cud meet all my requirements but only meet as I said I am ambitious for the above . I changed my life went .I was obese . To become active I joined gym also learnt car driving. hmm but nothing rewarding tried to learn new skill mastered some concepts but no calls at this 45 age . My spouse and my mom and even my friend is saying as due to ageism you can only walk but cannot run or jump further in career .even though I motivate myself this type of behaviour from job market is discouraging .is it true ladies post 45 no ladies are working or switching

If you have nil work pressure and good salary they why do you worry..
House and car with work pressure is way more wealthier than nil work pressure without house and car

No good salary lesser only

It's always better to evaluate our skills and the values you can bring in the organisation.

If you are just sitting in the same role, not evolving in terms of skills then you should go for a switch or find a new project, team.

It's better to be ready for the AI/ML tech 🤔

The current and future IT market is going to be more crowded without job opportunities against like never before I think.

What is ur current CTC? I'm also feeling trapped in same company more than 3 years no hikes. With family responsibilities and work pressure not able give any interviews also..

All companies are following this exploit procedure only

If you are not getting the opportunity in your tech skills Mainframe.

Try to explore new role as product manager, Consultant etc and use your expertise.

Learn lastest skillset AI /ML if possible that'll be an add on.

Don't loose hope. You'll find an opportunity.

All the Best!

Yep will be trying .

My CTC is 12 lak only it has increased only 2 lakhs for 8 years

My friend was at home for ten years but suddenly she learnt devops attended interview and got onsite at new zea land now she got pr her son got college seat therein just 3 years all happened

Some are lucky

Yeah Luck matters a lot in opportunities.
But we need to give our best shot as we can.

There shouldn't be regrets in ourselves.

I think at some point it'd be better for women to have a good wlb job role to have peaceful life.
It's true for Men also after a certain age 🤔

How do you get past bad experience with recruiters?

The work, the team and comp seems decent but I'm hesitating because of her. Should I still move forward?

Based on the Gross salary offered I have calculated the in hand salary per month would be around 152000 considering 150000 in 80C, 50000 in NPS and 200000 deductions due to home loan interest. Total tax liability is around 400000. Any other options do I have to save tax further (other than HRA, LTA)? Thanks in advance.

Hi Folks,

I've got a job offer from a small IT company. But before releasing the offer letter, they want me to accept a terms and conditions form which has this 10th point as shown in picture. It states failing to join them will result in paying 2 months of salary that's around 130000 rs.

Is it for real? If I get a better offer somewhere else ane don't join them, will I really have to pay this to them? Please help friends. What should I do?
