Job security - Good

Dislikes

...ues will be followed, but dint even give holiday when he died. Do not join here. Low salary, worst work life balance, worst managers. If you are planning to join. Join at your own risk. Also they have completely work from office policy, if you don't go to office everyday your salary will be deducted, and your promotion will also be cancelled and they give the reason that you are not following company policy. PLEASE DO NOT JOIN

Confused about Salary negotiations

CTC - 8 LPA Loc - Bengaluru, India I have been working in the same company for the last 5 years. My salary went from 3.6 LPA to 8 LPA over the years. I recently put papers, and, started giving interviews. I got an offer from TCS for 15 LPA(12.8 fixed). For more than a month, I've been giving interviews, asking for 18 LPA and many HRs are rejecting straight away, citing it is more than 100% hike from my current CTC. I kept trying and now I am selected for 5 companies - Iris Software, Capgemini, Quantzig Analytics, PwC, HCL, Infinite. Salary discussions are about to start and I'm confused. I'm not good at this. Can anyone suggest?
