Salary hike - Understanding

I'm keeping this anonymous because I don’t want to disclose it in real life. After two years without a raise, I successfully negotiated a 100% increase at my current company. I focused on creating significant value and worked in cross-functional teams to learn as much as possible. There were times when I was overworked, but it was all worthwhile. I was confident that it was a mutually beneficial situation.

My advice would be to choose your job wisely, create value in the right place, and don't be afraid to negotiate.

Just had to share this, I got a 100% hike!

Interview Tips & Stories

So, I got invited for this interview, and they told me to be there at 9 AM.  Of course, I get there early, like 8:30, because I don't want to be late. But then I end up waiting for 1.5 hours.  Seriously, they didn't even acknowledge me until 10.

Then this HR lady calls me in, and she's totally unprofessional.  She's like, on her phone, making personal calls while I'm sitting right there. And then she starts asking me these really weird questions, like what my nickname is, and what my dad does for a living.

It got really uncomfortable when she started pressing for details about where my dad works. I mean, what does that have to do with anything? So I politely told her I didn't want to answer, and she actually said, "Then we can't continue this interview."

I was honestly shocked. But instead of arguing, I just stood up and said, “Alright then.” And walked out.

I left feeling pissed. Not only did they waste an hour of my time, but the HR rep was also rude and unprofessional..

Got Rejected In an Interview, Just Because I Didn’t Answer a Personal Question

I was getting 15.2 LPA in my previous org and now i am being offered 29.5 LPA but the designation is 1 position lower than what i was in my previous  org. Should i go ahead with the offer or still negotiate on designation.

Protip : i was laid off in my previous org.

JiBe Development Services

Working at JiBe is a nightmare. The management is toxic, unprofessional, and abusive, with constant harassment and intimidation, especially toward Indian employees. Salaries are low, turnover is sky-high, and projects are always delayed because experienced developers keep quitting. HR is completely incompetent and even leaks employee salary details to their IT friends. Instead of fixing issues, management retaliates against those who speak up. Clients are constantly misled, and bugs never get fixed. If you’re considering working here or signing a contract with JiBe, run in the opposite direction.
