I have 4 years 8 months of experience in Java, Selenium, and API Testing. I switched from Infosys to a small Australia-based MNC when I had 3 years 8 months of experience. My salary increased from 5 LPA to 13 LPA. Now, due to location constraints, I'm looking for a change. However, recruiters often lose interest after hearing my current CTC. Is 13 LPA above market standards for my experience, or could there be another reason?

No, your package is not above market standard.

You are still at lower side. Based on your skills, it should be 3×your total working experience.

Not sure whether to be honest or not in this situation. I have decided that I want to leave my job and do a masters degree. I’m planning to leave my job at the end of June, should I warn my boss now so she can start hiring? I don’t want her to be blindsided by my decision and hiring is very slow at the moment. Plus if they hire someone I can train the transition will be easier? But I don’t want to shoot myself in the foot if they were thinking or giving me a pay rise or promoting me?

Is this legal? My spouses company just decided to change their comp structure for account managers. It was base + comm, now it’s commission only but nothing changed, OT commission is the same, didn’t get more points, just took away the base pay and said work harder basically. So now they have to worker harder to get $50k they were already making. (Not a decision based on employee performance, they’ve been crushing it. I think the company is just trying to save money they overspent else where)
