Salary Discussions, Hike & Promotions

I’m currently earning 20k in a startup in a 3-tier city, working in a collaborative role. 

I’ve been offered a job as an Assistant manager Digital Marketer at a product-based company (handicrafts decor/gift business), 

which matches my own small gift business. The salary offer is 23k. Given my experience and the match with my business, should I ask for more? They said 23k is what they can offer 

Would appreciate any advice.

URGENT-is a 3k (15%) salary hike after 9months fair?

Help me choose best offer

My current CTC is ₹7,80,660, which includes a ₹1,32,000 night shift allowance, and my monthly take-home pay is ₹72,133. 
I have received a new job offer with a CTC of ₹10,67,231, a monthly take-home pay of ₹83,333, and 192 restricted stock units (each valued at $60, vesting 25% after one year and quarterly thereafter).  
This new position is closer to my home and does not involve night shifts. The offer letter is attached. 
I have also requested a ₹95,000 monthly salary increase and am awaiting their response.  

Could someone advise me on whether I should accept the new offer or remain in my current role?

New offer. Confused.

Career Advice

Hi everyone, I’ve been working in Accounts Receivable (AR) for 3 years and am currently pursuing CMA US. I want to transition into core finance roles like financial analysis, FP&A, or corporate finance. Would love to hear from those who’ve made a similar switch—what roles should I target, what salary can I expect, and which companies are good for this move? Any advice or experiences would be really helpful. Thanks in advance!
