Career Growth

I recently signed a contract for 2 years, I'm currently having 2yrs experience in ERP implementation / Consultant and getting around 2.75 LPA. After signing a contract only they started giving training on Microsoft D365 software, where I can work on Business Central / Finance and Operations / Power BI / DevOps or any other softwares. So I can get good knowledge on various softwares, where I can grow myself and get better opportunities in the future.. 

I'm only thinking about is that contract worth ?

Career Advice

Right after my BCom, I took a service advisor role at Honda for ₹7K due to urgency. Later, I moved to a gas station for ₹10K, handling all kinds of work beyond office tasks.

My breakthrough came when I joined as an order management specialist in Bangalore for ₹22K. To advance, I self-learned Excel, Power BI, coding, and automation, earning a specialist role. I also completed my MBA in Logistics & Supply Chain online. After four years, my salary reached ₹35K. 
With management’s support, I transitioned to a procurement specialist role at ₹45K + ₹11K (night shift), later growing to ₹58K + ₹11K by optimizing processes.

Now, I’m preparing for an HR round and planning to ask for a 55% hike. Am I on the right track? How can I accelerate my career growth?

Am I on right path?

Supporting each other through the ups and downs of work life

Day to Day Office

I’ve been working at a small startup for the past 3 years, with just 3 other employees and my boss. I sit right in front of her, and over time, we became close, almost like siblings. I automated a lot of my tasks, so my work became pretty straightforward...I just input some variables here and there, and I’m done. Over the last year, my boss started asking me how I did all of that, and she wanted to learn it herself. Since we were so friendly, I didn’t think much of it and happily taught her everything I knew. This morning, she sat me down and told me that to cut costs, she needed to let me go and take over my role. She asked if I’d be willing to do a once a year consulting gig to check her work. I didn’t really know how to respond. She said it kindly, so I stayed calm and matched her tone, but now I feel like I’ve made a mistake, and I’m left without a job.

I trained my manager and now she no longer needs me.

Clocking 14-hour days might sound like the ultimate dedication, but at what cost?

This techie’s story is a harsh reminder of how overworking can damage the very things we work so hard for. The Rs 7.5 Cr promotion is impressive, but the toll it took on his personal life? Heartbreaking. His wife filed for divorce, and his success feels hollow.

Here’s why 14-hour days and 90+ hour weeks don’t work:

1️⃣Health deteriorates: Physical and mental burnout are inevitable.
2️⃣Relationships suffer: Time is the currency of love and connection.
3️⃣Long hours ≠ Better results: Productivity declines after a certain point.

Success isn’t about being the last one at your desk or working yourself to exhaustion. It’s about finding balance achieving your goals without sacrificing your well-being and loved ones.

Remember: Life doesn’t pause for promotions. Make time for what truly matters.

Techie worked 14 hours a day, got a Rs 7.5 Cr promotion, but...

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