I've always been a little sensitive since I've been a kid even though I have become thick skinned due to a lot of life events.

Are all corporate managers especially in India even in product based firms very toxic and harsh to their employees? I recently got laid off due to a manager who kept targetting me from day one despite the other reports doing a worser job than me and now I'm confused and worried about how I can face such a situation again he was quite harsh to me for seemingly no reason.

Corporate is filled with these kind of toxic folks but at the same time there are lakhs of companies and endless opportunities. Though we all know things are little hard now due to AI and all but still if you keep preparing well you will get into something. Don't lose hope as that's the only thing which will help you get going.

Are you a F/M btw?

Because indian community society even Modern society where the managers and management in corporate and private companies actually it's biased or discriminating or associated with caste or religion or language or gender it's very serious concerns actually companies are good all and every company they have strict policy but it's looks like India IPC law it will be there but no body bothering until serious escalation happened. This issues not just only hiring or managing or promoting even you're running business for firms all this bias discrimination partiality treating people based on all this shits, finally I'm very sorry to say about my own people or citizens this indian people behave or their behaviour is same even living or working out side of India or Abroad countries. Because now a days becoming a culture like this they want to keep in culture and religious sentiments. Don't know the future, in the past some guaranteed transparent and straight forward and priority to talents only the culture maintained in corporate companies. Now a days situation is worst irrespective of any age or level or people.

When you say your salary jumped __x, how is that exactly calculated?

Mine was $16k (minimum wage before joining corporate) > $40k (contractor total before getting laid off) > $150k (current FT)?

Is that a 260% jump or 2.6x from $16k to $40k?
And a 375% jump or 3.75x from $40k to $150k?

Or do I calculate it by hourly rate?

And is it a good move from a Big4 to BDO?

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
