WNS Salaries in Chennai (Updated 2025)

Likes

The work life balance is decent for my team, but other teams stretch far beyond office hours. It truly depends on the manager and how you draw boundaries. The knowledge gain is also good and transferable.

Dislikes

The annual salary tends to be half of the industry standard for my post. There are no annual statutory bonuses. The rewards and recognitions are also low at 290 points (roughly 500 rupees) on average once a year or so. The salary hike per actuarial exam cleared is also low at 36k-72k for the CT series and 50k for CP2 and CP3. The hike is 1 lakh for the higher papers.
