You see, 30% raise for a 300% workload increase is counter intuitive. Still you will focus on % raise than actually calculating your % workload increase and then renegotiating.
Again, 30% raise for a 300% workload increase Net gain = -270% That's not growth That's disguised inefficiency and That's how you stay below your earning capacity
Fact is, most job seekers optimize for salary. Smart ones optimize for energy arbitrage You don't get rich trading time for stress
But sure.. go ahead and flex your 30% raise.. When you are done... Pause. Now calculate: – What % did your workload go up? – How many more hats are you wearing? – How many weekends did you lose? – And most importantly: Can you sustain this? Can you build on it?
Because with that raise? You absorbed the Workload increase. And you will compensate.. with your bandwidth. with your peace. with your future burnout. And that's the part unfortunately nobody talks about.
uh how on earth would you calculate workload?? You could do guestimates that's it
There's no sure and short method to calculate raise + % workload increased with that
We cannot. This is not a one to one measurable quantity. Why? Job description is deliberately kept ambiguous for a reason. Look at any job description posted, you can notice there are as generic as possible.
They only way to reduce your work load is to keep complaining and try to delay deliverables as much as possible. They will keep dumping work if you show " eagerness to learn", "willingness to take initiative"....
Discussion with HR/manager upon your work load is like running away froma stray dog. The more you run, the more they chase.

📣 Hey everyone! 📣
I'm gearing up for my first chat about getting a raise at work, and I could really use some advice from those who've been there before! 🤔💼
Here's what's up:
My current CTC is 12,10,000/- with 1 year 10 months experience.
My fixed component is 10,00,000/- and 2,10,000 is variable.
How much fixed amount should I tell if they ask me about my expectation?
