Hot take: Resource management is a dead end job. You’re often stretched too thin, given duties way outside the scope of your work and stuck in a pay band due to title restrictions that’ll never get you compensated appropriately. I’ve been RM at two places; same sh*t different firm. Anyone else totally disagree? If so, tell us your experience

I don't think that's a hot take, I think that's accurate for 99% of RM jobs. Despite this, I enjoy the job quite a bit while thinking and strategizing about how to get to the next level after RM.

I think most are paid well. On par with PMs typically; in my observation at least.

While giving the tech interview as well as while having the HR discussion, I mentioned my expected CTC as 9-10 LPA(CTC). I cleared the interview and uploaded all the documents in the portal yesterday. Today mrng all the document verification was completed. But when I got the call for offer discussion, she asked what u expect. I said 9-10 LPA. She questioned me that on what basis I am asking for this much hike. She offered me 6.3 LPA as CTC with 21% variable. 5.2 as basic. Rest part in comments..
