What's your current ctc, yoe and how many years in the current organization? It totally depends on case to case basis , you can be a fresher with low salary or a experienced professional with a good track record or someone on the higher band with yoe and salary mismatch.

Yoe 5.5
Current fixed 24.8
Offered fixed 29.5 with 1L variable
1.4 years in PS (third company)

With your YOE you are about right at the package of 25. I would suggest two approach

1. Try to negotiate and stretch the offer to 30% hike because it is a standard market hike since you don't have a long tenure of 3-4. Years, HR will be conservative to negotiate higher as it projects you as someone who will leave - High flight risk

2. If they are not negotiating take the offer and try to apply aggressively before the joining date in market and you may get somewhere between 30-40% hike on current ctc using current offer as leverage

This is a realistic picture, there are exceptions so someone can very well say you can get 60% and I personally have never taken a switch less than 60-70% but I stayed with a firm for 3-4 years so that works for me.

So take your call but even if you go for 25% considering PS scenario it is not a bad deal.

I would suggest not to take retention as everyone is jumping the ship, if you have an exit take it. Don't fall for retention trap. Because considering market scenario it will be difficult to find opportunities 6 months - 12 months down the line . Consider your team's and company's situation

I'm a cashier. We just got a new manager, and she's making things really hard for us. She starts work at 4:30am and leaves around 2:30pm, but she still expects us to stay until 6pm and work on the weekends! She gives us really long shifts and doesn't give us much time for breaks. And when we ask her about it, she gets mad.

I'm worried that if I speak up, she'll make my life even harder. I don't want to lose my job because of this—do you guys have any advice?
