Dislikes

Compensation and benefits are very limited. Also you may go to a team where you will work a lot more than you are paid. Whatever you learn, this type of behavior from the management eats into your job satisfaction. The growth opportunities are also pretty limited as Ericsson is not a proper Software Development company. Benefits provided by the company is also much more limited compared to many other MNCs.

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!
