Profit vs. People? Should companies prioritize cost-cutting even if it means job losses?🤷‍♀️

Day to Day Office

Day by day i am getting more frustrated. I was hired as content Writer but now i am working on behalf of 3 people one content Writer + manager + e-commerce executive because executive above me left his job. 

So basically now i handle designers + writers their work sheets, tasks management, client emails, client changes, client calls and everything of content.  Though when asked for raise, ceo says its your job only you are not doing anything extra. 

I want to quit this so bad but financially i cant. And i am not even getting remote opportunities in content writing so i think i am doomed. This is dead end now.

I want to quit

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

Salary Discussions, Hike & Promotions

I currently have a CTC around 9.6L (1L being variable.) I got a new offer from an MNC having a new shared service centre at Gurugram and they are offering me 12LPA fixed. Currently, I am doing work from home and for the new opportunity I need to relocate. So, is this a good offer or should I think/negotiate more?

YOE : 5 years 3 months

Edit: Now they offered me 13.2 LPA. (Gross).  Also mentioned in the job offer that I will be eligible for Bonus payout based on performance which will be prorated.

New Job Offer!

I recently switched jobs with a 48% hike, and my current in-hand salary is ₹35K. But after joining, I realized a few important things that weren’t mentioned during the interview.

1. No Phones or Bags Allowed – We have to keep them in lockers, which I wasn’t informed about before joining.

2. Working Saturdays – HR said all Saturdays are working but assured that one Saturday off per month would be introduced soon. I can't see that happening anytime soon

3. Phone Policy Confusion – When I asked HR why this wasn’t discussed earlier, they said it’s only for two months and won’t be the case at the new location (which was discussed earlier). But some old employees say the same rule applies there too.

4. Leaves – We get 21 paid leaves a year.

I’m already thinking of switching. Would it be too soon to leave within 3 months, or should I stay for at least 6 months? Also, since I just got a good hike, how much can I ask for in my next job?

Unexpected job policies: stay or switch?

My current salary is 31.5 lacs fixed , 6 lacs variable and 75k+12k is medical benefits and mobile bill.
Offered salary is 41lacs , 4.1 lacs variable and 50k stocks. But here role is solution architect role and my previous role is more like tech lead with architect skills. Is this good offer if I am almost 10 yr of exp
