Here I had very bad experience. I worked as a consultant. I forced work with illegal ( pirated) software . Work done by me as show it as other person and sent for onsite training Germany for training. My offer letter has changed after joining . My consultant period was only 6 months . My offer later changed to 3 months notice period . It's against any organisation policy . In organisation every where you see big boards of "code of conduct . " But employees never expect justice from it . Ethics counsel is to protect there people. I joined with perception Tata group has know ethics. But felt TACO is most unethical and most discrimination organisation.

Salary Negotiation in an interview

Hi, I have had a first round of interview with the company. And mentioned my salary expectations as 15- 20% from my previous LPA. But after that I feel like I have undervalued my expectations. Being in the field for 9 years with the required skill, considering the market and the prospect company is a well known builder, i should have asked more. Anyway a face to face interview is scheduled next week. How to ask them a higher salary from what I have mentioned earlier. And how much I can ask more. Please help. Thanks in advance.
