Telling myself that my most recent rejection is not my last opportunity or it wasn't the right role for me is not complete. It was the perfect job and everything I wanted in a job. But I sabotaged myself. Instead of taking the salary they offered, I asked for $4k more and the employers ghosted me. They told me I was the final candidate then later said there were other candidates. I'm kicking myself and telling myself that a decent employer wouldn't ghost over a salary negotiation.

They should have at least countered… but if it wasn’t meant to be it wasn’t meant to be… I’m a firm believer that we need to go through these situations to get where we’re going…

Hi all, I have about 7 years of professional experience but only one year as a Customer Success Manager. I work on mid market accounts currently. I love my job, but would prefer to support a more robust platform that will allow me to add more value for my customers.

I’d appreciate your thoughts on what compensation you might expect for a CSM transitioning to a new company with one year of experience.

To clarify, I don’t have an offer yet, I’m just looking to make a move.

Thank you!

I recently joined Capgemini at 13.5 LPA along with 1 lakh as joining bonus. It was a jump from 6.5 and I have 4 YOE with 2 yrs in React JS
Two questions that's been bothering me -

Did I settle for less as I can see people taking even bigger jumps with less experience?

My joining date was 15 September, so am I eligible for upcoming appraisal as the annual review is due by October 14 and I have just joined a project?

Please share your insights as I have looked for advice everywhere else.

Does anyone feel miserable at the fact that it will take you at least 8-10 years to double your salary from where you are now?

I’ve suffered from workaholism for a long time. Thanks to a lot of great self help books and therapy, I’m no longer putting work on a pedestal and I’m spending a lot more time on self care and my marriage. But, unfortunately, I am now getting withdrawals, because my body is used to the daily adrenaline of throwing myself into work. It’s this terrible feeling of like anguish/unease in my gut, but I don’t have anything I’m worried about- it’s like my body wants to find something to worry about.
