This is exactly how I feel about my boss. Obviously, he hasn't been around that long, but he basically got started right out of high school because someone took a chance on him, and now he runs the entire newspaper. I won't have half the chances he had unless I job-hop, mostly because things just don't work like that anymore. Does anyone else work for someone who's been in their position forever and didn't have to fight for it the way you do now?

Yeah, my job is just like this. It's all family-owned too, and my boss mostly only promotes his family members so I have basically no chance of moving up here. But I just took this job because I needed something on my resume besides just school.

As I'm moving to a new role in a small company, I have a doubt about my salary structure like the Basic salary part is only 20,000 while my take home is 62k after all deductions.

I'm concerned because the leave encashment & other things totally depends on the basic salary.

Are there not any rules for the Basic salary to be at a certain % of CTC or it depends totally on the company?

Also PF deductions they are offering only 1800 p.m but considering 20000 basic it should be 12% of 20000 right?

I come from a very middle class upbringing, and so does she, although she’s influenced by friends dating professional athletes and stuff
