I am working as a PMO with more than 10 yoe but my sal is only 11LPA. I want to switch for better package. But my constraint is work life balance as I have a kid to care for. What package can i expect if I also want a good wlb?

If you are able to maintain a work life balance at your current role then I would suggest you to continue as it will also add to your experience and you would be indispensable to your team.

Hi.. Thanks for replying... But i think this cannot be the best example of work life balance either.

With 10yoe it’s wayyyyy to low. I mean way below the level of salary you should have right now. Switch to any organisation with a proper market research about the salary that I normally been given. Like some organisations are given 35 lpa and you asked 30% hike then loss is yours. Always asked HR in interview what’s the companies budget. If they refuse to tell then ask give me some rough range of budget. They’ll tell you the budget for example like up to 25 then go for 25lpa.

Sure.. Great peace of advice... Thanks... As I am not a frequent job hopper, I have not really had a lot of experience with salary negotiations.. Also, any way I can judge the work life balance in a company?

If I was in your position, I would update my LinkedIn profile to the dot, and then start increasing my network connections. Once you have connections, it becomes easy to ask queries with existing employees. You can also leverage Fishbowl by posting about wlb in the community of the organisation you are trying.

They came back and said yes to the title and to 125, with a 6 month review that could raise it to 145.

Which is good for Sr Copy, but low for CD/ACD level. Don't want to screw myself over. What to say now?

Any craft beer brewers here?

In the last two year I’ve gotten more and more into alcohol free beer. The selection in my country (Europe) is still small and mainly driven by the big brands (e.g. Heineken).

Any thoughts on that idea or someone who has experience in the market?

I’m maxing out my 401K, traditional IRA and HSA this year and paying for some house improvements.

I was focused on paying off huge chunks of my mortgage and managed to whittle it down to $75K left. Would you suggest I go ahead and pay that off this year? Or pause and do a mega back door roth instead? I’m mid 40s. Thanks!
