Cheap level politics from management and new comers, directors in phoenix. You can get fired any time just by saying performance issue. No Job security. To get promoted you need to have strong qualities of buttering up with manager/director. Join only when you have nothing else then Druva and continue with you preparation.

Hi All, During a job opportunity, when the recruiter asked for my expected CTC, I mentioned 12 LPA, as my previous job's fixed salary was 7.8 LPA. Now, I’ve been shortlisted for the Product Designer role and have learned from some sources that their maximum budget is 14 LPA. How should I approach the negotiation? Would it be reasonable to ask for 14 LPA, considering I initially stated my expectation as 12 LPA? The job is based in Gurgaon, and I have 4.5 years of experience. Looking forward to your advice!
