Most junior level is typically Manager. I’ve seen the jump happen with 2 YOE into an Insights and Analytics role.

This is accurate but also some companies like to do "specialist" and in their internal structures that's equivalent to manager. Those are usually not the big Pharma names though

Hi ,

I have 5 years of experience as a .NET Full stack developer. I am holding offer of 21 LPA and I had HR discussion with Mastercard.

HR is not ready to share the exact budget they have (weird!! because HR usually give the idea of how much they can offer )

HR is asking me to expect something on top of the current offer I am holding.

The opening is for L8. How much offer I should expect from mastercard??
