you're framing this post like it's a revenge opportunity. be a man. be a professional.

You guys don't get it, maybe because OP didn't explain it well enough. Let me try. All he's saying is this- Back home, this girl ditched him (ostensibly) because this other guy was working in the US and earning in dollars, while OP was still in India and earning in rupees. Now, OP finds it ironic that he will be two grades above the guy she left him for. If OP is telling the truth about the reason the girl left him, I agree with him - it is very ironic. Those of you who aren't from India won't empathize with how open some girls are back home about the whole US thing. "Oh XYZ, you're an amazing guy, but ABC has a green card, and my parents like him better too, sorry"

Why be a hater!

If your a SM I am sure you can find a new woman. Why sit around hating on another dude. Find a new woman they are everywhere. Your not some loser with no potential.

Or are you and that's why even thou you make more money and have a higher title she chose him?

If you are thinking about hating on the dude. Weak move.

Just move wish you the best.

We both parted away and never get in touch for last 7 years. 5 years back I transferred from USI to US Deloitte as M. The guy added me to LinkedIn yesterday and I found one common connection, which came out to be her.. after digging more found out that this is the same US settled guy (earns in $) for which she ended our 6 years long relation 🤣

Hello everyone!
I’m currently working as an Optimization Associate, which in my company is a step above a project manager. Our team didn’t have a scope for the majority of my tenure, so I was practically doing E2E PM & process improvement for multiple teams. I’ve asked for an off-cycle salary increase (35%) because I’ve been performing at a higher level than my job entails far before my promotion to the role and I’m currently excelling. How likely would the company accept it?
