Salary Expectation

Hi Everyone, I am currently working as a QA Engineer (Automation + Manual), having a total of 3.6 yoe primarily in Oracle EBS. Initially used to work with the UFT tool for the first 2 years, then switched to TOSCA for the past 1 year. When I used to work with UFT, I didn't get much of a chance to do hands-on at the code base level, so I'm not very confident with UFT. However, I am pretty confident with my TOSCA skills. I am looking for a job change. How much should I target, my current CTC is 6.9LPA. Please suggest..

Will get salary that is ok

Dislikes

But if you give more importance to mental health than salary don't join this company. You are literally a slave of the client and no body will speak for you.. and if your too lucky to get a client like Novartis(pharmaceutical company) and especially get into celonis tool project then you can say bye bye to your mental health and just hug the salary you get and stay. Working hard is not the issue but the politics they play and the slavery you guys will experience is more than what was done in the colonization period. Hope everyone understands my mental health state currently and would deeply analyze before joining cognizant or Novartis.

Promotions - Bad
