Ugh no pay increase and then only 2.5k YE bonus. Seems underwhelming; are there no YE increases if you get promoted in summer? As a staff, we got pay bumps every 6mos.

You got pay bumps 2x a year? And 2.5K bonus?!?! Where do you work?!

PA bonuses suck! The most I ever got was $2500. I left for industry as a supervisor and get $9k/year retention bonus, plus 15% bonus target on a 100k salary (based on company’s financial performance, not individual). Best part...I work 40 hours a week and have a life outside of work. 😎

Yeah, where do you work?

Are you at RSM, Supervisor? Just look at your compensation compared to others in similar sized firms with equal years of experience in your LoS and region. I have found that the Robert Half guide is generally close if you ignore the thing that says to add 5-10% for CPA or masters

Don’t worry about when your pay is going up, or singularly what your bonus is. Worry about overall comp compared to market!

Hello Fishes,

I recently had a interview call with TCS technical team and the interview went well. HR asked to upload my documents in ibegin portal. But they are yet to contact me for my salary negotiation it's been three weeks since, can i know how much can I expect as compensation?

YoE :8.5 years
Current CTC: 14 LPA
Skills : information security
New salary ask :30 LPA
No other offer in hand

In today's scenario what is the average pay for a senior software developer with yoe 6-8?? (Do not include companies like maang and similar companies). I want to know if I am in average salary slab or not. TIA.
