Oh come on! I've switched 3 jobs in 2.5 years and I was/am one of the best performer in all these firms. And I never switched coz of the salary/hike but the bad company policies, work environment, bad projects/features/clients, no team building, no proper review cycles, bad communications, bad leaderships etc etc. The harsh reality about Indian firms/startup is that mostly people are NOT very smart at what they do and have very strong opinions. If you are not ready to learn from smart talents and you don't respect them, people will switch..more often than you can ever imagine!

Easy to say these things for someone who earns around 1 CR per year. It’s difficult when the society in constantly judging you on the basis of money you make. But, yes, 3 jobs a year is definitely not a good idea.

shutup. u just want to earn more for show off. Dont throw it all on society. more than 85% indians earn less than 10l in india. how are they living then? so you're switching so often because some few jerks are judging u? And its ur fault ur in a community like that. most people I know dont judge. Its u who just wants to be better than anyone and thats fine. But using these excuses is so lame.

[@adhaarsharma753]

Founders want to earn more money while not shelling out money for the developers. Developers are in demand. We work really hard too and want to be compensated accordingly.

This is pretty bad advice. If companies want to retail talent they need to pay the market rate. If they can't people will leave. That will create pressure for them to raise salaries, isn't it just basic capitalism. The fact is if companies would adequately compensate their existing employees, keep the salaries competitive more people will stick around. But they are willing to pay a lot more to acquire new talent as opposed to retaining them, that is the real reason why people switch. If someone is getting paid twice as much for the same role, guess what he is not the sucker I am.

[@VarunMayya]

Then learn to negotiate with your current company or know your worth before joining one? Switching jobs for a raise only means you have zero soft skills

[@shekharr2227]

not sure about that but staying at a company for atleast 1 year as a dev should be a min, it takes atleast 3months to study the code

[@sprudhvi583]

Usually, the salary hike we get on internal promotion is less than that of what a person gets if he comes to our company with level raise. I do not understand this logic, which is why I'm inclined to switch companies rather than wait for a promo. Obviously, 2-3 jumps a year is too much, I'm talking about once every 2-3 years.

[@VarunMayya]

Negotiate with your current company

[@nikhil99a]

@@VarunMayya It's like begging with the current company. You don't ask for respect. It should be given without asking. And negotiation never works with the current company. The current company will always be happy to hire a new person with less skills than the existing person and also offer more pay.

If it would be a detailed discussion it would be better. I was confused that a business might grow 10x and salaried are not passed down to employees in that way, so why a employee must ristrict them to a same job if getting a better offer?

[@nandakishore5443]

awesome bro, this was really a great point.

[@sakshampathak8289]

Why not advice the founders to create an environment of growth and why they give increment of only 5-10% they should increase it if the employee is performing well.

[@shubhamjain2312]

When it comes to entrepreneurs/promoters, they reach out to multiple investors for money. Eventually when business become big they go for an IPO and earns millions. But when it comes to employees they have a problem! Everyone wants more money man!

[@nikhmanu]

Yah its true how hypocrite they are.....Ultimately everyone wants financial freedom

[@sumityadav8181]

3months is too fast, 1 year is I see most people do. If the company is paying the highest they can they should not start matching it upon receiving the resignation later which hurts more than they could have given easily but they didn't.

[@nikhilsrivastava9120]

It's simple. Founders want the best equity / debt deal for their business and so do developers for their salaries. Why such extreme outcast behavior towards 1 group? Insane.

It is not always true that we are valuing ourselves with the money we are making. Because it is also true that the amount in your bank is reflection of what you're putting out in the world. As simple as that.

[@shreyashs]

Even switching every year is not good, at least 2 years at every job. But the thing is, everybody has some particular amt in their mind, like suppose a person wants to earn 1 lakh a month & is at 25K pm , then he/she will switch multiple times in a very small period until they 1L and then they will stabilise.

what if your company hires a new guy with less experience than you and is paid more. would you be able to work with him in the team knowing that he knows a lot less(literally) and is paid significantly more than you.

I know I am a little late here. But this isn't true for all organizations, if you're in a toxic shit hole then you'll not learn much and lose the motivation to do so. Also, same for services/consultancy companies if you're not working on a good project then it's highly unlikely you'll be getting a good project anytime soon, atleast in most cases. Landing a good company with a good project that one can stick to is hard.

[@therenaissanceman441]

@@VarunMayya I would argue the real problem is employers low-balling below what's acceptable and dishing out extremely low paying offers. Junior candidates typically not knowing their market value fall for it, but I think are well within their rights to move on when they realise their market value. The reason they wouldn't discuss internally is because they would be asked to adjust on what they want, rather than be given their hundred percent market rate.
