Hi Folks.
I was laid off last month .Gave few interviews and got an offer recently. The issue is that they are offering me salary lower than the last company. The reason they gave me is bcoz you were receiving x salary in your last to last company and you switched in just 6 months . Why do companies ask for the expected ctc then ?What should I do? Have no other offers currently.

If they have fooled you by agreeing to expected CTC earlier and low balling you later take revenge by accepting the offer and send a mail on day before joining saying that you won't be able to join giving the above reason.

Set your expectations before interview. So give interviews which agree to pay atleast your current CTC.

Keep applying meanwhile if you under a financial crunch take the offer. DM for Accenture refferal
