Hi fishes,
I am planning a switch so was going through some salary data for a software engineer. My ex-senior manager recommended me a website: Growceed.com which helped me a lot in getting clarification about a lot of things but I am in doubt whether the average salaries of software engineer mentioned on Growceed.com really that much in top MNC companies.
Pwc salary structure? Benefits
Urgent
Hi Fishes,
Need your suggestions in negotiating.
Experience: 6+ years
Skillset: Power platform and power apps
Current ctc: 16 lpa
Offer in hand: 25 lpa (Capgemini)
I am asking for 27 lpa to EY GDS but HR says max they can offer for 6 years is 21 lpa.
Wanted to understand whats the offer standards in EY GDS.

Almost never. For some strange reason my laptop doesn't power on and Outlook on my phone forgets to notify me on weekends
Never and from the consensus on here this isn’t normal lol
Nearly 100% - but almost always by choice. Typically log on ~4 pm on sundays and work until bedtime. Do this to pull ahead work and reduce workload Mon-Thu by ~1-2 hours a day
Never.
Started as a C and now a SM. Worked in PEG and GP. Also worked in US, EMEA and APAC. In all these cases, I have not worked on weekends because of what Intern 1 said + I always kept my boundaries and non- negotiables very clear :)

Rarely. Occasionally if there’s a short fuse proposal, or I might take an hour or two to prepare for the coming week, but maybe once every 5-6 weeks.

Never
Occasionally during heavy crunch times, but it is definitely not a common habit or occurrence for me.
Weekends are sacred.

Never; I’d imagine it’s not terribly common but will always depend on your rank and what area of consulting you’re in.
Every Sunday morning I do about 2-3hrs, 8am -11am helps me get a kick start on my week while the teens and wife are still sleeping and it is just me and the dog
Neverrrrrr
Below manager, about 1/3 of weekends, after manager, maybe 1 per month.

Pretty infrequently now. It happened more often when I used to be more involved in writing proposals.
In M&A, often put weekend hours in ☹️
Maybe once or twice a year. And that’s been true my entire 5 year tenure.
Manager, never work on weekends
