Making Less Than Junior With Same Role, What Should I Do?

Ans:

Hi Priyanka,

There are few reasons for the same:

1. Experienced staff have been in the job market for more time and, with time, their salary increases.

2. Experienced staff mostly get jobs that are more complex.

3. The quality of output delivered by experienced staff is usually superior.

4. Experienced staff act as formal/informal mentors to new employees.

 

Ans: While this happens in multiple companies & there is an age-difference that plays it's roll as well, I would recommend you to submit your case to the management for a salary correction. An individual should look at getting their salary corrected at regular intervals with their employers.

Ans: Hello

Switch job to better paying company.

All the best.

Ans: Let's tackle this with a clear head and a practical approach:

1. Reflect on Your Goals:
Take a moment to think about what you want out of your career. Are you happy where you are, or do you feel like it's time for a change?

2. Consider Your Options:
Think about whether further education or exploring new job opportunities aligns better with your career goals and personal aspirations.

3. Talk to Your Uncle:
Have an honest conversation with your uncle about how you're feeling and what you're thinking about for your future. He may have insights or ideas that could help you make your decision.

4. Negotiate if Necessary:
If you decide to stay with your current job, consider discussing your concerns about salary and responsibilities with your uncle. It's okay to advocate for yourself and ensure you're being fairly compensated for your work.

5. Explore Further Education Wisely:
If you're leaning towards pursuing further education, research your options carefully to find a program that fits your needs and schedule.

Remember, there's no rush to make a decision. Take your time to weigh your options and choose the path that feels right for you and your future. You've got this!

Ans: Please remember, you are uniquely you, so please stop comparing yourself to others including your batchmates as everyone has their trajectories. This doesn't mean you stop putting effort to bring the better version of yourself. Keep improving yourself and put 100% of your mind and time in what you are doing. This will help you reach and exceed your goals.
