Dislikes

- Salary is very low. - The work is horrible. 80% of it was just running some existing tools with absolutely no coding involved. - No skill building or learning whatsoever. No exposure to relevant technologies and concepts. - Promotions and appraisals are arbitrary and opaque. - Managers are deliberately deceptive and dishonest. Best to avoid the 1 on 1 meetings with them. Just an endless stream of lies. - Benefits and amenities are really bad. - Office location is terrible.

WLB is good. The care shown on an employee is good. The perks like internet reimbursement is good.

Dislikes

The managers treat technicians very badly. If there is a failure, technicians get the blame. The technicians are: not given time for skill development/to learn something loaded with work affected by the bias between engineers and technicians taken for granted by the managers

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?
