Though it's going to be a fresh start but the environment I got was low. Sometimes people wants to be a part of a start up as a great opportunity but the management (Basically Some founders) are quiet act like a robot and treat you as one. Miscommunications are very much likely to happen since the blame games are on and perks are always a subject on availability or I must say planning of deductions are very much focused in all the aspects they can. So go get an opportunity may be in a small but good environment or build a startup with a human environment instead joining in such a robotic startups.

Dislikes

Miscommunications and poor management skills.

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?
