Good salary and benefits, specifically for the consulting path

Dislikes

Up or out culture where progression depends on having “sponsors” within the Firm who are willing to staff you; in fact, there is no other way to get staffed on projects except finding these sponsors since there are so few projects (most are lost to BCG, some never come due to deteriorating quality)

Dislikes

Disgusting work culture. Too much politics at mid to senior level. You need to gang up to survive in this company. There is a condescending attitude towards new hires. They firmly believe that they are doing a favour to you by hiring you. They even cut your designation when hiring to prove as if they are some sort of God. The environment is like the movie Hunger games. If you don’t have support of the big group or some senior partner, even the smallest mistake will be viewed very harshly and rudely. They will create a situation where you will be compelled to resign. Everyone is in survival mode to protect the “partner compensation” during this current global economic situation. They will not bat an eye to give a poor rating to highly capable and highly experienced people on some silly excuse. Then they will claim that the person didn’t meet the performance standards. The entire 360 degree review system here is a facade. It can be manipulated to save you hide or send you to the gallows.

Salary Expectations

I am a Social Media Specialist with over 4 years of experience and was earning around 4.5 LPA in my previous role. When I joined my current organization, I discovered that my manager, with just 2.5 years of work experience, was earning a compensation of 7.6 -8.2 LPA (approx). This was quite surprising to me, and it made me question the market standards. I am currently looking to switch roles and, based on my research through Glassdoor and other sources, I am expecting a package of 7-8 LPA. However, many HRs I’ve spoken to feel that even 6 LPA is too high. What should be the ideal salary expectation for someone with my experience in the current market?
