Hi Fishes
I interviewed at a company. The recruiter asked my expectation before the interview & I quoted 3x of my present salary & they were fine with it.( I did not reveal my existing salary). I am expecting an offer but I have a feeling they will ask for my existing & then offer accordingly . I have 9.5 years of exp. but my existing is low as my existing comp. Is from a tier 2 city. Both have wfh. Any negotiation tips to deal with this scenario will be highly valuable.

Thanks

In Cognizant was in a support project and no more new scope of learning with package 8.4 LPA; Received TCS offer of 12.1 LPA and accepted it. After resignation now Cognizant is saying that they will match the package and an assurance of onsite in 2022 (may or may not be true); what will be correct action? In terms of job security, WLB?

10-12 days back I had an interview with UBS. I have not received any feedback yet. In UBS portal application is shown as interviews in progress. I tried sending mail to the recruiter asking for feedback but no response. Can I assume I did not clear the interview or interview process takes this much time.

Recruiters are the worst. They will lie to your face to get you on an interview.

I am 28 and am a Sr Mgr in strategy at a bay area consumer tech company. I feel like my comp is super inflated - TC for the next 12 months is ~$440k: ~230k cash, ~$150k equity / yr, and another $60k retention if i stay til july.

I feel like moving on will be my best chance for vertical movement to the director level and that I am not progressing my career much further, but I know I can’t make this much money elsewhere…

Hi! I need some help negotiating a raise. I have been working for this company for exactly 3 months now, but I was hired as an AGM. I'm not specific on what my responsibilities are as AGM.
However the GM at the time, quit 1 and a half months in. I was thrown into the role and have been handling it since.
My regional calls himself our GM but is never on site.
Was reluctant to cover my shifts when I became sick and requested time off for a few days. (4 days)
Any thoughts?

Where should I join..?
LTI with 27.5 lpa
Frequence (offer in progress) exp 33


Lti is like other service based mnc
Frequence on the other hand is a mid level product based Co.

My joining is in 2 days

I have 2.7 years
CCTC 4lpa including variable
Holding 9.75 lpa fixed

In Deloitte I asked 12lpa fixed + variable. They said consultant role starts with only 3 yoe. So they said 12 lpa is not possible for below 3 years. While I was given designation consultant only.

Are they trying to lowball me or does this happen?

Got an IBM offer. In the offer letter, there are 3 options, Accept, Decline or Query.
I have raised a query to change my joining date which they complied with. But now the offer letter does not have any of those 3 options but I have both the offer letter and the mail with new joining date.
Anything to worry?
