I love this The fact that you’re bragging anonymously

It doesn’t make me cringe, it makes me think it’s possible

Legendary growth OP!

Wow! I love to see Indians working remotely and getting paid in USD, Euro or Pounds. I hope you are aware of Presumptive Tax(44AD), GST filling and other compliances.

Had a similar trajectory ~5 YoE Started at 4.2L and now at 45L + RSUs What helped was making impactful switches and making broader impact. Made sure management knew about the progress I was making and documented everything. Money wasn’t the motivation for switching. I chose roles where I would make a lot of contributions and impact. And used that impact to negotiate promotions and hikes

Great, there are many people i know that have grown their salaries by 2-3x in the last 2-3 COVID years. I really hope that these people (most of them dont add that much value) are brought down to ground in current environment

Yes. Rather than just bragging, help others as well with the name of the company and how to apply.
