...er is god type of company, forcing people to use their crappy proprietary techs. No hike, no promotion, no growth for decades. This is like a graveyard. Once you are in, you can never get a new job as you are obsolete in the market.

Worst company on the planet. It did not give salary hike to Indian employed for last 4 years. Once you join Oracle , you become outdated for outside because this company still works in outdated technologies.

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?
