I was raised highly anti-capitalist; it was dogmatically infused in me in my most influential years.

I went from anti-capitalist to ‘capitalist who aspires to solve for challenges within capitalism’. I now seek grounded approaches to capitalism rather than reject it, and while I have criticisms of the capitalist model (along with any other model), to go from outright rejecting it to aspiring to be a change agent and propeller for it feels like at least a near-180.

This pertains to marketing in that I once found this work inherently entrenched in corporate / 1%er greed and systemic manipulation. I was devoid of recognizing the value of a free and open marketplace, its impact on innovation, and its meaningful contribution to the global economy. I also lacked genuine comprehension of how fragile stocks and a company’s valuation are and just how much capitalism is a highly strategic gamble.

I find capitalism to be a fascinating tool now — useful for some things and not for others — rather than an enemy.

I'm an accounts receivable expert with 8+ yrs of experience. I started with 96k per annum in 2014, and have worked with 4 different MNCs since then. Currently I'm getting approx 9Lpa, and it feels like I'm pretty much stuck here. Switching jobs increases the pay scale, while staying for a while reflects stability.

When I look at the other member's comments here, it seems majority of folks are earning 20-30Lpa or even more.

Any suggestions from mature audience to achieve a big pay raise.
