@heyitsthatguy1247 If you don't mind, how many years of experience do you have and what kind of expertise do you have ?

@ghahghans 1. I'm a web developer and mostly work on the backend. Language proficiency: Java, Go, JavaScript Frameworks: Spring (primary) , NodeJs and React library Database: SQL and Non SQL (document db) I'm also experienced with Micro services and cloud native apps along with docker and...

@anonymous_iran Thanks for your comment. I'm already brainstorming on one idea that can serve the whole company not our team only. And yes Linked in is another thing I need to work on. My LinkedIn profile is obviously not worthy of 12m!

@toni123 I get your point. I have a friend in one start-up who's kind of using this trick. But my company is very big and well structured. HR has more power than anyone. My manager is very happy with me and tried to negotiate with HR for 9m but seems like they'll hire a new one with a higher...

@followinghim681 Yeah that's a dilemma I have. I've been in toxic companies and I know the level of frustrations. Sometimes I have to work longer hours here as well but it benefits us with lots of other flexibility that we have. I'll surely keep in mind the work life balance before switching.

@followinghim681 Thanks for your comment. If I stay in the same company and perform like the previous year I'll get close to 9m I suppose. But after seeing all the comments I've surely understood the reality.

@taikoo Do you know me? 😉 You perfectly got what I wanted to express. Money is a great motivator because I'm in great need right now, but I'm also very enthusiastic to learn. I love to be the smartest person or be among the smartest people in the room. And I truly believe this is the age to...

@twm Thanks for your suggestions. Yes I'm not underpaid by any means. I was underpaid before I joined this company, otherwise I could've got a better package. I just want some advice from you. As PM you may see a lot of developers like us closely. What are the skills you think are must have? It...

@twm Well my company is a MNC. It pays well. Some people get more than me in the same position. At my previous job I was heavily underpaid so 8 million is the highest I got after promotion here. The only problem is promotion here is strongly tied to the years of service you've given to the company.

I never said I deserve 12 Million. That's why I asked if my expectations were realistic or not and I wanted to know what skill set I need to have. Whoever is commenting thank you very much. Whoever downvoting, I would really appreciate it if you write your thoughts as well. I just want some...

@savedbygracethrufaith0713 Thanks. Great to know. I actually had one interview for a contractual position but they were working with some obsolete tech stack from 90's. I'll try to explore the banking sectors as well.

@savedbygracethrufaith0713 I work in the finance sector but haven't seen into banking or asset management companies. I thought the banking sector will not be willing to pay a higher salary as they'll be hardcore Japanese companies. But that is just my dumb guess.

@njn Thanks for your comment.

@njn I really tried a few times but always failed for my lack of consistency. I find it very difficult to manage time after work and family chores. I'm almost mentally exhausted at the end of the day after work. And I'm always in doubt that should I learn competitive programming or use the time...

@blight91 Yeah interviewing once/twice a year seems to be a very good idea. I can test my skills and also get ideas about market needs. With my company I'm growing myself but at a very slower rate. Seems like I really need to find motivation/energy to work on myself after work hour as well...

@jeanvaljean I'm proud and satisfied at my current state. I just want to hustle my way up. Thank you for your comment. I'll surely try to hit the jackpot besides upgrading my skills 😜

@heretostayy Thank you.

@jewelpet Thank you. I know it's not easy. It was not easy to reach 8 million even. But not sure how hard it is that's why taking help from reddit.

@iridescentlight Thanks for your kind words. I also started with a very low salary, 4 million.

@iridescentlight Thank you for your comment. That gives me a little idea of what I need to work on.
