...ists, where those who are not part of the inner circle are treated as outsiders. This can negatively impact promotions, salary hikes, and opportunities to showcase one's skills, regardless of competence. Moreover, mid-management often lacks the capability to effectively lead the team, further contributing to an unfair work environment. In such situations, one often faces two choices: either adapt and align with the group, including engaging in flattery, or leave the team or organization. Additionally, internal job postings (IJPs) are often influenced by connections and internal referrals, making it even harder for outsiders to progress.

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.

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?
