Hi guys,

Please drop in your thoughts.
First switch. Current CTC is 4.5LPA.
I've received an offer from Accenture for only 5.9LPA. HR says it's impossible to go beyond without a counter offer.

I'm nervous to drop my papers without a second offer considering Cognizant will give me a promotion that will be higher than what Accenture is giving me rn.

Is it wise to drop my paper and look for better offers?(I'm unsure about the job market for someone less than 3YOE)

Declined that offer, its not upto market standards. You should target something around 10lpa

What is your techstack?

I tried to negotiate stating I'm gonna complete 3YOE at the end of my NP and also that I'm due my promotion in the current org which is almost gonna be 6.5-6.7, but the HR doesn't seem to budge. He says that increment can only be given on current CTC.

Ive decided to decline the opportunity and search elsewhere. Thank you so much for your inputs!

Job market isn’t that good
And in Accenture financial growth is very slow so you will be stuck with the same package with 2 to 9% increment based on your performance next year

Thanks for the info. I've decided to decline the offer and search elsewhere:/

I am in the Houston area at an energy related tech company as a software engineer. I have been working here a year and a half and got a 10% raise (70->77) but don't know if I am being undervalued. This is my first job in the field but I am evaluated as a top performer and have responsibilities like mentoring other employees and interns, delegating certain work items and make some of our major design decisions as we move forward.

A HR question I really want to understand. ISRS HR quoted a podcast "The not so great resignation" saying 70% regret leaving and many want to go back to old employer. If this really the case the employee likely left due to higher pay at the new company. If they want to boomerang back they will likely come back at even a higher rate than they left the new company for. So getting double raise when they boomeranged. Isn't it unbeneficial, why not just give employee a 7% raise in the first place?

Being the curious, how could be all skills mentioned in resume would be current skill.
