I interviewed with a Big 4 firm in India and cleared technical and partner rounds. The partner said I’d get an offer soon. HR shared a salary lower than expected. I gave a counter which was declined, but I accepted their initial offer. Later, HR said the offer was on hold due to budget issues. It’s been nearly a month, and HR isn’t responding to my messages. Should I email the HR and CC the partner to ask them about a status update? Anyone experienced this before, could you pls advise?

You’ve gone through all the rounds, negotiated in good faith, and accepted their initial offer. Radio silence after all that? Not okay. I’ve seen this happen before, and the folks who looped in the decision-makers usually got a response, maybe not the one they wanted, but at least some closure. Keep it professional, short, and clear: just state the timeline, your understanding, and politely ask for an update.

Thank you for the suggestion. Will do.

Yeah agree with the above - send separate emails though and ask if you could get an update.

Not sure if the right spot but need help figuring out my worth. I am with a large real estate PE firm, mcol area, and I am technically in FP&A. That said I do 95% of my work automating valuations, fund models, and underwriting using SQL, python, and excel (for end users to be able to use). Given my technical department, my skill set, and my actual work I don’t know where to start for understanding an appropriate salary. I have 5 years industry experience with both finance & tech.

Hi Everyone!

A company has made an offer and I wanted to understand if i'm being made a fool.

The monthly compensation is 1,37,500 (16,50,000 yearly) and Variable component (Bonus) is 1,50,000.

However in the offer it says "You shall be paid an annual compensation of Rs. 16,50,000/- per annum Cost to Company."

Which to me sounds like it doesn't consider 1,50,000 to be a part of CTC which is suspicious to me.

How should I deal with this?

Thank you!
