Global exposure. Steep learning curve. Nice office.

Dislikes

Salary not at par with the market, even one's skillsets and qualification. Your career growth/advancement is going to be very highly dependent on the relationship of your reporting manager as well as their favorites due to favoritism, clannism and regional preference, leading to a rat race and very cutthroat working environment. Leadership/management team are so full of incapable people as long as one has the gifts of the gab which is highly regarded in Novartis at the cost of gullible associates.

Salary - Poor

a lead engineer

After Switch, Feeling lost in a career. Specially after working in good companies, MNCs, Captives etc.

I have 10 YOE I joined a fintech company as a senior lead developer (java, cloud) in October 24 CTC 37. Everything is good here. Eg . Worklife balance, work from office/home , stability, project manager. only issue is java work is less and stuck in Financial product where we need to deploy test and mostly do configuration changes. This is my 5th company. What would be the advice? is that okay to change comapny in 5-6 months? how to proceed ahead with the career ?
