Worst company ever, they do not care about the employees, they will go to any limit to spoil your career once they don't like you. Senior leadership is the worst. They will also cheat on your full and final settlement if you are not a manager favorite. Extreme level politics. Beware, i have seen so many people joining and leaving within months.

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?
