I got 2% raise and left industry.

.

I averaged 8% in industry. I was also (not to toot my horn) a high performer (1s and 2s out of 5 every year)

8% year over year is pretty solid A1

Guessing you were in finance?

I got a 30% increase when I left industry and then after a year, I got another 25% increase . Crazy

No engineering. This was over the course of 7 years and a good time in the industry. Low base, though

Hi guys,

I need genuine suggestions. I was holding offer from IBM and Wipro & now have got a good offer from a mid size organization.
I want to negotiate with IBM and Wipro & join any of these two.

Do these companies negotiate? When & how should I start negotiation with them ?

I would like to talk professionally so that they provide me a matching CTC or in case, they can't at least they don't block me for future openings.

Please suggest, if anyone can share their experiences.

I have been talking to a recruiter for a little over a month about a position.

I didn’t have 2 interviews with the hiring coming and they know that I am not really looking to make a switch. They are now working on an offer letter and I know they’re going to offer me more money. I’m having my annual review this week. Any advice on how to handle a) job offer b) review?

Got a temp offer for less than a year without promise of turning into full-time. Wanted to know what ppl think about temp jobs (looks bad on resume if I don't turn full-time later within the company?) and what comp should look like (e.g. 1.2× of regular comp?).

Got another perm offer in a different industry for similar salary, but I might have to relocate and I'm concerned the work may involve translation instead of pure legal work.
