Wipro Hi fishers, need a suggestion urgently. My wife Joined Wipro on 12th of Jan 2022 but till now didn't got any project. Stream is SAP Functional. Now she's holding an offer letter from Cognizant with a good package but problem is need to join by 19th of April. Is there any way to give spot resignation in Wipro? She's currently on bench.

Definitely leave. If you’ve been there for 6 years and still on 50K (or worse started even lower) then I don’t think this place really knows the value of what you’re doing. There are however a lot of places that do ❤️
Skills translate :) I’m sure other people on here that are into design can help you out with the specifics
50K in SF is crazy, please leave.
You are severely underpaid. My production designer (who has like 3 years of experience and whose job literally is to swap out images and text in existing templates) makes $90k plus stock options and yearly bonus in-house in tech. I bet you can double your salary with the current skills you have.

Not currently, I’m sorry! But seriously, if you’re trying to get a foot in the door somewhere else look for production artist, presentation design, or performance design gigs. They’re not the most glamorous but lots of companies need people to just churn work out by someone who’s not complaining about it - and they’re willing to compensate you well for it. Good luck 💖
Start looking, my first job out of college paid 50K. Promoted at 1 YOE = 65K and switched jobs at 2 YOE = 87K
Goodness you could freelance at at least double this rate for your own clients. I constantly see roles open for your company and it’s always been a red flag to me.
Edit: as a hiring manager I don’t care what degree you have if you have the portfolio to backup your skill.
The customer-facing in-house designers usually stay, which is why it's so scary for the rest of us to leave! Some people finally leave, and end up coming back later for even less pay.
We don't really see anyone who works on branding or UX but I'm sure they're also underpaid. They at least have more options out there. For us it feels like there isn't much we can do with wedding invitation experience lol
