Time for a raise? Need advice on asking for a hike!
I'm a 2024 grad working full-time at a startup for 8 months after a 6-month internship. I'm really good at my job and made decisions that saved the company money.
Right now, I make 23k/month (post-deductions) in Pune, which isn't enough since I support my family.
Our increment cycle is in March. Should I ask for a raise now? If so, how much? Everyone's been impressed with my work since day one.
I want to stay for 2 years to gain experience.

Anyone else super unimpressed with administrative support with a new firm after lateraling? I told a partner I’d just take care of a routine task myself.

Big firm. You’d know the name.
