Supporting each other through the ups and downs of work life

Day to Day Office

Day by day i am getting more frustrated. I was hired as content Writer but now i am working on behalf of 3 people one content Writer + manager + e-commerce executive because executive above me left his job. 

So basically now i handle designers + writers their work sheets, tasks management, client emails, client changes, client calls and everything of content.  Though when asked for raise, ceo says its your job only you are not doing anything extra. 

I want to quit this so bad but financially i cant. And i am not even getting remote opportunities in content writing so i think i am doomed. This is dead end now.

I want to quit

Show me the money! Let's talk compensation and hustle.

Salary Discussions, Hike & Promotions

Cctc - 27.4 (21.6 fixed + 5.8 variable)
Yoe - 10.7 years
Tech stack: .Net full stack + Azure PaaS

Cognizant offered around 42% hike on fixed component and gave 32LPA (30.5 fixed + 1.5 variable)

Got selected for HCL Tech (Henkel client) and LTIMindtree and expecting offers/HR discussion soon. Question is how much "Fixed component" should I ask them? 

Thanks in advance

How much to expect

These days, everyone seems to want to quit their job and start a business. But I actually enjoy my 9-5.....it gives stability, a fixed salary and peace of mind.

I get that being your own boss sounds exciting, but isn’t it also stressful? What do you think? Why do so many people want to leave?🤔

I love my 9-5

I recently switched jobs with a 48% hike, and my current in-hand salary is ₹35K. But after joining, I realized a few important things that weren’t mentioned during the interview.

1. No Phones or Bags Allowed – We have to keep them in lockers, which I wasn’t informed about before joining.

2. Working Saturdays – HR said all Saturdays are working but assured that one Saturday off per month would be introduced soon. I can't see that happening anytime soon

3. Phone Policy Confusion – When I asked HR why this wasn’t discussed earlier, they said it’s only for two months and won’t be the case at the new location (which was discussed earlier). But some old employees say the same rule applies there too.

4. Leaves – We get 21 paid leaves a year.

I’m already thinking of switching. Would it be too soon to leave within 3 months, or should I stay for at least 6 months? Also, since I just got a good hike, how much can I ask for in my next job?
