Pay scale is decent. I won't say the best, but you won't be disappointed. Top management is usually good for the Tech Team. They listen and they understand. They have been quite considerate during the bad times while we were working from home.

Dislikes

Too much work load at times. Ad Hoc business requirements shatters the quarterly plans at times. We are helpless and have to follow the instructions.

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?
