Assign all heavy work to the working folks. Make them suffer and corner them. When they retaliate , tag them with remarks like attitude, hyper and encourage mediocrity. It has become a govt company. Managers behave like gods. Work culture got spoiled and nice talented people are leaving. No bonuses every year. They will include bonus , in your CTC . Don't fall for it. All name sake feedback procedures n they boast about their culture.

the weekends when I'm not having to work or listen to the BS coming out of the top management team

Dislikes

no communication other than corporate jargon and meaningless platitudes. No real direction from the top team who don't seem to know what they are doing - it took them 18 months to realise classroom training is not the same as digital learning! Cost saving decisions that end up costing more, especially when they have to then reverse that poor decision 2 weeks later. Corporate culture is extremely isolating with little team cohesion and no real inclusion - I've not had a conversation (email or otherwise) with my direct line manager in nearly a year!

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?
