Going to get promoted to senior this coming year-end, which will mean I have a higher salary and title. Can I leverage this to get a better package in half a year?

My two cents. Move on. In this market moving between jibs should get you 15-20%.

No harm in reaching out in the future. I used my next promotion and salary increase to negotiate higher. I just said "here is my minimum to be enough to leave. I like my current job and I'm not going to leave it for less than a 20% increase." It worked for me. Stick to your position and maybe they'll understand they can't recruit if they are stingy with salary.

He told me to reach out in the next 6 months or so to reconnect or if I had a change in mind. Does this mean that in the half years time or so, I can possibly renegotiate a new offer?

Maybe your skills don't match their banding?

My two cents is stay until you get senior, then get a year of experience at that level. Yes you can get 15-20% now, or get some real experience and get 30-40% and move in a year or 1.5.

I’d be wary if they could do that at this stage. You don’t need to burn the relationship as it’s a small world but let them be the ones to reach out to you

General question, and I suspect the answer is no. Are there any employment or exec comp-related jobs in the entertainment industry? Or, are there any law firms purely focused on entertainment that have a comp/employment/benefits group? I’m at a large firm with a lot of high profile artists, but I’d like to narrow my practice down to entertainment.

New in TCS but couldn't understand PF procedure and it's deduction from salary.
I am paying PF of amount 2040 getting deducted 2 times from my salary 1st according to CTC and after salary is getting credited then again same amount is deducted, so my question is this correct.
CTC is: PF+ 76185
Salary is: 76185-PF.
PF: 2040 so it's getting deducted 2 times same amount every month. Before salary is paid and after.

I stand firm on not wasting my time applying for a job that doesn't post the salary with the job description, anyone else do this? I feel like anytime I have interviewed for a job that didn't post the salary, they end up lowballing me during the offer phase.

Everyone has a different perspective on this but would love to hear yours. Someone has debt ranging say 4-5% interest rates. Do you attack debt more then investing to move towards a debt free life or do you go after investments since they return historically above that then paying down closer towards retirement. I know the latter looks better on paper but what about the psychological factors of being debt free and the guaranteed return on interest savings.
