What is the average salary for an account manager in employee benefits at brokers firm? And what about a senior account manager salary? I have 7 years of experience in the health insurance industry. I want to see if I’m on track or if it would be out of line to ask for a raise.

Hi Fishes

Please advice
I am currently working in TCS (11LPA 10 years Exp)

I have 2 offers in hand. TechM with 19LPA & DXC with 25 LPA (23L + 2L Variable)

DXC hired me for Indian client .My job profile on system admin. Work will be on Legacy Technology. Do I get chance to upgrade to cloud and shift to different Client

Most of the review on DXC is negative. How will be job security and work life balance. In most review I see "termination & layoffs." How is current situation in 2022
Thanks!

Curious what other underwriters are being paid. We have had a good amount of turn over lately where people are getting 20K plus more, but the people we are hiring to fill those spots are saying we pay “way” more than their previous role. Seems there is a big gap.

Those let go by Y&R/VMLY&R - did you get severance and how many months?

I moved to San Antonio much bigger city from W Texas 2.5 years ago just all before the pandemic office closing - then moved to Wfh My reporting manager advised from w to office they would review my salary to reflect my new location. but my employer now 2 years later indicate that since I am a wfh employee they will not review my salary to make any change to reflect the move. Should I ask again about it?

Please let me know how much I can ask for.

Hi, I have a total experience of 5 years and working in a project as a Product Specialist (Not a developer or so much technically sound). CTC - 8.5LPA.

Now I am planning of doing some Masters/Certification and move to a more technical job. Do you all think this will be a good idea considering my scenario. If yes, which course will be better for me?

Kindly suggest & guide.

I’m working on an application for an exec assistant for a ceo and the application wants desired salary. I feel like that’s a trap. If I put something to low that’s great for them but if it’s too high I don’t want my app to be tossed immediately. What should I do?

Hi Guys,
One of my friend is a Mechanical Engineer at a company and he is design engineer with 4 yoe.
He is tired of the job as he has to work for day/night shifts and sometimes work 16 hours if his collogue is absent. His CTC is 3.
He asked me if he can switch from Mechanical to IT industry?
I said that it's possible to switch but you will have to work really hard and face many challenges. He said he is ready to give whatever it takes.
Has anyone witnessed switch from Mechanical to IT?

Anyone willing to give referrals to B4/T2/MBB strategy? Currently a strategy consultant at a financial services consultancy in the US, trying to get out of being pigeonholed into financial services and honestly get to market comp - our levels are kind of pathetic with inflation.

I was approached on LinkedIn for an early career recruiting role in DFW, TX. I don't have direct experience, but I have the university experience/connections from working in career services. This is the first time I've considered work outside of higher education. I said my salary expectations are minimum $90k and that didn't seem to be an issue. Am I asking too little, too much? How can I know I'm getting the best salary and not just settling at the low end of the range?

How many times should you reach into to a recruiter before giving up? I reached out once and she said she will let me know and I interviewed going on 2 weeks.

After 7 rounds of interviews My recruiter said, “We will get back to you with an update as soon as we finished interviews with other candidates and debriefed.” Is that a bad sign?

Can we talk designations a minute? I'm at the agency level now and would like to move to a company underwriter. If I'm going to add some designations to my portfolio, which would be the best? I don't think jumping right into CPCU is the right way to go. I can earn my CIC and then pursue a CRM or CPRM. I don't think I want to do the CISR since that won't do much for me if/when I move to underwriter. Is there something else I should consider? Do designations matter at the company level?

The higher i move up the career ladder the more I see "muslims" in leadership position openly drinking alcohol. I don't judge but I'm just curious do they feel the need that to climb the leadership ladder in these big corp roles?

I feel like my people must be here. Everyone on my team is <35 (and I love them) but I’m right on the cusp and officially over the 35 mini hill. Who else has younger team members but is still “young” and doesn’t know what to advise about this age range to the youths ready for some great awakenings that come in this late 30s era?!

Hello, does anyone work as an auto underwriter for insurance? I recently got accepted for an internal job position and was offered $50k. I’m currently a claim processor making $20/hour so the offer is more than what i’m making but is low in comparison to the average salary for an auto underwriter in AZ (which is around $58k). I believe because the company knows how much i’m making they lowballed me. Any tips on how to navigate the salary negotiation and can u share ur salary ?

Florida PIP Litigation 1+yrs at Progressive

Love: WFH, Flexibility of not being “chained to desk” all day because I don’t have to take outside customer calls, ability to complete work assigned at any time of day within 72hrs, no micromanaging from my Supervisor, feeling like I’m my own boss

Hate: getting assigned bulks from others and it throws off efficiency of reviewing suits, monotony, depositions
