Education. Do your homework. Know what your position should be paid, and know your value and worth, but don’t be greedy.

I once gave an individual a raise that was on par with the industry standard. A fairly good one. This person came to me and said that it wasn’t fair and he was about to stop working. I asked what they expected to receive. He wanted a 40% raise. I told him to find another job that would pay him that much more and we could work together on a transitional plan.

We all want to be paid well and fairly, but you gotta know the right number to go after.

4. Inside opportunities if you're the creamy layer
5. PF amount in offer letter is the total deduction and not just company's contri
