In PwC Assurance, the typical role progression is 3 years to Senior Associate and 3 more years to Manager. And if you're in your promotion year and you lack the necessary skills for that next level, you're "voluntold" to quit... Has anyone here ever reach "Super Senior" status (i.e. 4th year Senior Associate)?

I was 4 months short of reaching there but I have quit, there are lot of other places where they will respect the skills you bring to the table rather than following a checklist to make you a manager. First point of checklist is you should be a really good pet. 😂

Now Deloitte has approached, so can I ask for 30%pay hike considering the switch will happen after completing almost 11-12 months in my current organization or can I ask for more than 30%, depending if I get a senior consultant or manager role? Also will the switch within a year have any negative impact?

Hi Fishes

Joined My new company this Jan. My previous income was not eligible for tax slabs. Now while adding the income from Apr 21-Mar 2022 it's become 5.9 LPA. I don't have any investments and in my new company I declared the same. The only tax exemption I have is PF contribution and professional tax. I have only 25K PF contribution and 2.5K professional tax. So while calculating the tax I am getting 15K as tax payable. How can I avoid this 15k. Kindly pour your suggestions. TIA.
