No Promotions, very much politics. If you know higher management people then your growth will be more like Salary, promotions, on-site etc. otherwise very poor growth. Very Bad Management nowadays.

While the company is doing extremely good the compensation policy is not as good or comparable to the market. The company mainly for new comers is a great learning platform with a lot of focus on Learning and Development. However, as a policy the organisation believes in benchmarking the Compensation at a maximum of Industry average or below it.

Dislikes

All organisation has a problem. In here growing in career takes time as no of departments are less. And hiigher archy is very simple structured. Also products are less. And man power is comparitively less. And sometimes when we are not upto company needs some maybe given time to leave organization. Still they are given opportunity to develop themselves . Thats a good part of Az policy. Overall Astrazeneca is one of the best organization to work for. I have spent many years in here.

1. Good work life balance 2. Good prospects for learning 3. Good tech stack 4. Support for continuous education 5. Good hike when compared with service based companies (though not right to compare captives with service based)

Dislikes

1. Should review the market pay standards and should work better on it. 2. Should work better on the retention plans for those who have decided to leave the org 3. Layoffs in 2021 created uncertainties

Salary Expectations

I am a Social Media Specialist with over 4 years of experience and was earning around 4.5 LPA in my previous role. When I joined my current organization, I discovered that my manager, with just 2.5 years of work experience, was earning a compensation of 7.6 -8.2 LPA (approx). This was quite surprising to me, and it made me question the market standards. I am currently looking to switch roles and, based on my research through Glassdoor and other sources, I am expecting a package of 7-8 LPA. However, many HRs I’ve spoken to feel that even 6 LPA is too high. What should be the ideal salary expectation for someone with my experience in the current market?
