Work-life balance, Managers are just postmasters of the company. Nobody is accountable for anything in the organization blame game goes on. In spite of being Top performer in the organization no recognition or reward, You will be treated like slave.

- Work-life balance can get bit ugly at times, specially when there's high case flow. This is not the case always though. Normally you would have decent work-life balance. - Job security isn't there that much. But again it depends on your performance.

Most colleagues were good to work with. Management is open to listening.

FMLA leave policy is ambiguous and management was quick to call out performance issues upon return from FMLA. KNH is one of the most two faced managers there.

a technical project manager

Deadend

Hi, I'm here to share a part of my journey from the past 12 years in my career, I started from a package of 3.6LPA in 2013 at iGate and due to a few bad decisions on my career and worthless advices from people who are always pessimistic about the industry, I switched two companies and landed in a start-up with 2.4LPA. I worked hard nearly 8-16hrs a day single handed researched, built and managed an entire vertical of a project for 8 years. When the company didn't value my contribution and thought I was too young to become a manager, I had a package of 6LPA and Senior developer in designation. I switched for obvious reasons to a TL role for 12LPA and now at the same company I'm a TPM on the basis of my contribution with 48LPA as a fixed component. I feel outclassed in terms of having a fancy CV with certifications, I feel like CTC has hit a peak with 48LPA being fixed and nearly 40% in Variable. Most companies are hesitant to hire me because of this. What should be my next move?
