Deadend
Hi,
I'm here to share a part of my journey from the past 12 years in my career, I started from a package of 3.6LPA in 2013 at iGate and due to a few bad decisions on my career and worthless advices from people who are always pessimistic about the industry, I switched two companies and landed in a start-up with 2.4LPA.
I worked hard nearly 8-16hrs a day single handed researched, built and managed an entire vertical of a project for 8 years. When the company didn't value my contribution and thought I was too young to become a manager, I had a package of 6LPA and Senior developer in designation.
I switched for obvious reasons to a TL role for 12LPA and now at the same company I'm a TPM on the basis of my contribution with 48LPA as a fixed component.
I feel outclassed in terms of having a fancy CV with certifications, I feel like CTC has hit a peak with 48LPA being fixed and nearly 40% in Variable. Most companies are hesitant to hire me because of this.
What should be my next move?

At this kind of salary you should be now focusing for higher positions like CEO or CXO not for new TPM or you should have a skill which 1% people in the country.

You should be looking for mental peace

I totally understand your position. You have to accept the fact that you won't get a 20-30% hike when you change now. Job calls will not be very easy to come by. Some HRs will even try to convince you that you are highly overpaid. Referrals are your best bet.
Salary will be a mixture of fixed, variable and stock components. You must be extra careful when evaluating the offer. Before accepting any offer make sure that you evaluate the company thoroughly. Because the next time you go looking out for a job, things will get tougher

Joining a FAANG company or a startup like Zepto can be highly rewarding, as they offer packages exceeding 1 crore.
I know individuals earning approximately 1 crore or even more.

I might be blabbering, but you should consider building on your own after you came out of the burnout and also consider going towards artistic things.

Therefore the lesson is "Don't play with a workaholic".
And there are more hardworking persons are suffering in some companies, try to help them out to achieve atleast 24 LPA.
You're next move will be "Helping Hand" as a good startup.

I know people who work for even more hours, travel 30-40km daily, listen to their boss daily, and still earn less than this!
Now I think its high time when people should start considering being an Cab/Bike driver as a career!Image credits: The Corporate Bhakt
