WLB is poor. Work is totally out dated. Career growth is negligible. Pay is laughable. Management is oblivious and arrogant. Managers are non-technical. HR's are arrogant and bears grudge against employees. People are untrained and lack skill. Company policies are not employee friendly and profit-oriented. Work culture is characterized by back-stabbing. Job security is non-existent. Politics is dominant. Yes boss culture is rampant. Hikes are less than inflation if not 0. Skill people are degraded by fellow members. Please work on these things.

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

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.
