Only salary get on time.

Dislikes

Here lot of over pressure. Higher authority do not focus on hiring the candidates for doing the project , only focus get projects. T&D Engineering dept has no sufficient team members and KEC participate in each and every tender which creates pressure on engineers. Here do not follow the process. Most of the team members from engineering left the organization due to pressure, promotion. Only have 4- 5 engineer instead of 30. But KEC has lots of substation project. Here have CPMG team whose creates pressure unnecessary on engineering team but no body from engineering team can not give the counter answer due to internal issues.

New Job, Higher Pay, Now I’m Feeling Awkward

I’ve been at my new job for about six months now, and everything’s been going great! I’m getting positive feedback from my manager, and I get along well with the team. The thing is, when I started, my salary offer ended up being much higher than the initial number discussed during my interview. I didn’t negotiate and just accepted the offer. So, fast forward to happy hour with the team, and the topic of salary comes up. I, unfortunately, shared what I’m making, and let’s just say... it didn’t sit well with the others who have been on the team for years and make less than me. They weren’t mad at me, but now I’m feeling a bit uncomfortable and unsure how to handle this situation. Has anyone had something like this happen? How did you deal with it? Let’s chat!
