I’m salaried but realistically working way past normal hours most weeks. When I break it down hourly it’s not even great pay anymore. Do you think about salary that way or just accept it as part of the role?

That's how it is for most salaried employees. I don't like it, but that's the way it is. And since I don't want to lose my job in this market, I'm going to keep putting up with it.

Oh no, I’ve definitely done the math and realized my salary breaks down to a pretty crappy hourly rate. I think that’s the whole scam when it comes to being an hourly employee.

I totally get that! I think about it too. It’s frustrating when you break it down.

Hi Fishes, Just wanted to know what is the salary band of associate 2 in Tax profile? Location is either Kolkata or Bangalore or Hyderabad.

I feel like every company lies about “working your way up.” You’re never allowed to blatantly say that you don’t like your position and you’d like to transition to HR or Finance. It’s almost as if once you get in claims, you’re stuck.

If you’re a manager and you see an employee that wants to branch out into a different department, why would you keep them boxed in for 2+ years?

Are there some background mechanics that I’m missing?
