Career Growth

I started my career in e-commerce with a product listing and stock management, earning ₹6K per month. After a year, I transitioned into organic social media marketing, managing daily content for brands for over two years (₹20K per month).

Then came my leap into paid media, where I spent 3+ years honing my skills. I worked my way up from:
🔹 Executive – ₹28K/month (Joined)
🔹 Assistant Manager – ₹43K/month
🔹 Manager – ₹53K/month (Left)

Recently, I took on a new challenge as a Senior Executive in a different organization, now earning ₹65K/month.

Looking back at my 5-6 years of experience, I see a journey of continuous learning and growth. But as I move forward, I wonder if I am on the right path am I earning the right money?

From ₹6K to ₹65K: Am I on the Right Career Path?

Day to Day Office

Hey, AB fam,

PIP = Corporate death sentence. 
I was there too🥲—panicking, checking Naukri every 5 minutes, watching Bhagavad Gita reels at 2 AM.
Priya Ma’am, my boss, had lost faith in me. Friends said, "Bro, PIP se promotion tak koi nahi jaata." But I refused to go down.
My Survival Jugaad?
Chai Pe Charcha – Timed my tea breaks with hers. "Ma’am, elaichi daalni chahiye thi." Next day? She agreed. Trst unlocked.
In meetings, I nodded like a bobblehead. "Ma’am, truly visionary! Aap to corporate Rani Lakshmi Bai ho!" Smiles = Achieved..
Emotional Connect – She loved dogs. I updated my DP with one. "Ma’am, my dog wakes me up for meetings!" Bond = Secured.😉
The Final Jugaad – She looked stressed. "Ma’am, even Dhoni takes a break!" She smiled. Game over.
After a few months "Congrats on your Promotion!"
Moral? Hard work is good. Smart work is better. But jugaad? Boss, that’s the best!

Got a crazier PIP escape? Drop it below! 😂👇

From PIP to Promotion – The Greatest Jugaad Story Ever!

Hi,
I have had a first round of interview with the company. And mentioned my salary expectations as 15- 20% from my previous LPA. But after that I feel like I have undervalued my expectations. Being in the field for 9 years with the required skill, considering the market and the prospect company is a well known builder, i should have asked more. Anyway a face to face interview is scheduled next week. How to ask them a higher salary from what I have mentioned earlier. And how much I can ask more. 

Please help.
Thanks in advance.
