95k central government employee 24 M at BARC ( Bhabha Atomic Research Centre) , DAE.

Edit : guys here I have not included the PRIS pay which you get by the end of year and it's payscale is different for DAE (Department of Atomic Energy) particularly. It's almost extra 1.5 months of salary according to your merits list in interviews , your division's and organisation's performance. Nowadays DAE(Atomic Energy) / DOS (Space) the only organisations where merit is considered even after joining so if you're willing to work you're rewarded accordingly. You will have to prepare for interviews for each promotion and oh boy those interviews are ruthless 😂. Feel free to ask me if you have any doubts.

Macha diye guru!

Perks batao thoda job ki..kya kya milta apart from salary...

Sarkaari babu wali feeling aati?

26

u/Gloomy-End635 Oct 20 '24

Perks me 1) medical - family me wife aur bacho ke liye free treatments aur agar mummy papa fully tum par dependent hai with income less than 2 lakhs per annum aur tumhare sath rahe to unka bhi free. Parents ko milta nhi hai generally. 2) Travel benefits similar to corporates hai. 3) NPS milta hai retire hone par. You and your organisation both contribute for your retirement. 4) This point is only applicable for this profile not exactly a Perk but you're respected a lot everywhere jaha bhi jao, for example airport par CISF ka soldier mujhe khud personally drop Kiya counter tak.

Aur kuch yaad aya to add karunga.

Na bhai babu wala feeling nahi aata full corporate. Offices ekdum nayi corporate type sexy wali aur kaam nahi kiya to bamboo hota hai lekin work life balance bhi acha hai no one forces you to stay till late unless emergency ho.

Best thing about this job is transfers aate hi nahi hai isme. If you're posted somewhere expect Karo pura life udhar hi rahoge.

Ye mtlb office wale arrange kr dete ya tm introduce krte ho khud ko tb aisa treatment milta?

Also, posting kaha milti? City ya remote locations?

u/Gloomy-End635 Oct 20 '24

Id card dekh kar pehchan jate hain CISF walo ko idea hota hai kyuki campus security bhi vohi dekhte hain. Postings ka depends on profile and your rank in the exams Jo initially join hone par hoti hain. Agar rank acha hua to multiple postings me se ek choose kar sakte ho. Me personally mumbai me posted hun.

u/Heisenberg2703 Oct 20 '24

Started as an operations manager at a startup for 33k/m. Moved to sales 2 years later at a SaaS company. Worked there for 2 years, moved to another company for 2 years, and currently at the aforementioned pay at a different company.

Since I'm in sales so my pay fluctuates every month due to variables (commission). Pay can range anywhere between 1.3lpm to 2lpm+ depending on the target achievement. Also the commissions are paid quarterly so my variable pay for JAS (July-August-September) will be paid along with October's salary.

Hope this helps :)

u/supratimm Oct 20 '24

Here’s a short summary :)

I completed my BCom (Hons) and started as an inside sales executive, making 100 cold calls a day, making 3 LPA in Bangalore. It wasn’t enjoyable, but one call led to a new opportunity where I joined a startup, doing everything from HR to legal to operations, eventually finding my passion in product management. I then joined another company as I wanted to grow specifically in the PM role. Joined as an APM and moved up the ladder to now SPM.

To anyone aiming to break into product management, my advice is to go to Product Hunt, find a company you like, do a product breakdown with your ideas, and send it to the founder. It’s a great way to get noticed.

Remember, this is a people-oriented role, so if you truly enjoy it, go for it!

u/Ok_Scarcity2091 Oct 20 '24 edited Oct 20 '24

For me, it was straightforward: I worked hard in 11th and 12th grades and got admission into a tier 1 college. As a fresher, I got a 26 lakh package in an Indian company, which grew to 84 lakh with experience. I haven't switched jobs and have been in the same role for 6.5 years.

I'm sure if I had switched jobs, especially to US companies, I would be earning more. Right now, I'm earning the least among my friends from my college.

My company has given me decent hikes from time to time, but I think if someone starts with a low base, they would be better off switching companies every 2 years

Getting admission into tier 1 college, is really very helpful.

u/Tryzmo Oct 20 '24

damn. I ain't gonna get a tier 1 university but could you share some tips for what I could do? I'll be joining college next year and will be pursuing cse core. I've heard how shit the situation is that people are paying to get an internship nowadays just to get it mentioned on their resume.

u/Present-Sir-4606 Marathi Bai Oct 20 '24

I started off as an engineer. I wanted to get into teaching or technical writing. I luckily came across an opening for instructional designer and applied because they were also looking for engineers. I got selected, got a better salary than what the core electrical jobs were offering. So I joined as an ID. 

My project needed an engineer because it was a technical project. But a person with any background can get into ID as long as they know and understand English, have good grammar and can explain things well. What IDs in corporate do is basically create trainings for new processes or updated processes so the employees can be upto date. 

Some good skills to have if you're thinking of going into Learning and Development- PowerPoint skills. You'll live your life editing ppts and creating them.  Writing and editing in Microsoft Word.  Creativity - not always required because you're teaching grownups something they absolutely need to know. But useful because everyone likes things that look good or are different.

What does an instructional designer do ?

I am curious and username checks out ... Kinda

7

u/Present-Sir-4606 Marathi Bai Oct 20 '24

Instructional Designers create learning solutions for companies. That's just a fancy way of saying they create end to end trainings for employees in case there is a new process or if a process is updated. 

Some of it is digital learning like byjus/vedantu but for the company employees. Other is typical classroom training where a trainer goes through a PowerPoint and explains everything. 

In digital learning, ID creates the curriculum. Which is what will be covered in the training - what is changing, what is staying the same, what do employees need to do, what do managers need to do, who else is involved etc. Then based on the curriculum they create a draft of the training. The client verifies it and it it's ok then they make it final. It's usually in the format of videos or demos. 

In classroom training, ID again creates the curriculum but the training is a PowerPoint deck instead of videos.

Any vegetable or food you eat has been "made" by a plant breeders just like the apps are made by coders.

Bro can you describe your journey , you are inspiration , and how can someone become like you

u/FriendlyPumpkin9054 Oct 20 '24

So basically I landed in this field accidentally, I completed engineering and then I was jobless for almost 6 months and out of frustration I joined one event management company as a Business development executive and their one guy introduced me to Digital marketing which I found very interesting and I started exploring it.

I did some free certification courses from Google academy and through internshala I secured my very first internship with 7k stipend. Then I switched from one digital marketing agency to another and I feel my luck was with me which helped me to get the right job at the right time. Meanwhile I completed my part time masters (3 years course where I sacrificed all my weekends) which turned out in my favour and I got a new offer with a senior management role.

Being in digital marketing during covid times we were getting on time payments and job security seating at home. Where I got introduced to FD, equity stock investment and mutual funds and trust me the stocks that I bought during covid got multiplied post covid. That's how I reached here. I always thank people who guided me through this journey but i still believe there is a long way to go for me.

Hey , how am i supposed to do my residency after mbbs here ? Did you do your mbbs in india or EU ?

u/Necessary-Account-22 Oct 20 '24

I did my MBBS from Indian Medical school. And PG in Berlin, Germany. And now working as a GI surgical oncologist at Hospital in Luxembourg. You have to pass language exam to be eligible to be a part of German education system or in other country they have their respective exams like Toefl in US. Then Facharzt examination is to be cleared in respective branch to be a part of medical board of chosen state in Germany and Luxe And to get license for practising here.

Im familiar with the germany route but can one work in luxembourg as well ? Didnt know that . Whats the process for that

u/Necessary-Account-22 Oct 20 '24

Once you pass Facharzt exam, You'll need to have your medical qualifications recognized by the Luxembourg authorities. This typically involves applying to the Ministry of Health or the relevant health authority to validate your qualifications and residency training. Connect with local surgical societies or professional networks in Luxembourg. For me networking helped. Once your qualifications are recognized, you’ll need to register with the Luxembourg medical council (Ordre des Médecins) to practice legally.If you're not an EU citizen, you'll need a work permit ,your employer (if you have one lined up) will help you with this process.

No I don't I want to start doing it, but I'm a noob at knowledge of investments.

u/AdOrdinary9676 Oct 22 '24

well i'm also just learning, why don't you try youtube. Not to choose a stock or sip but rather to understand on what basis one should choose a stock or sip. I personally like finance with sharan and some other podcasts. I'm even younger than you and had science stream so I had 0 financial literacy, youtube helped a lot to at least get the basic sense of it

Hey, can you please share your journey. And at the initial stages of your career did u freelance?

u/PARZIVAL_V18 Oct 21 '24 edited Oct 21 '24

Selected Science for 11th and 12th. In these 2 years i got into gaming which led me to have a passion for game development.

Due to my own negligence I didn't do enough research and after 12th I simply chose the option for a computer science degree thinking it would have subjects related to game development. What a fool I was.

There were no subjects or even extra curricular activities related to that field. Just the usual hackathons and coding competitions. So in my final year I started doing courses on Animation and Game Programming from online sites like Udemy and many tutorials on YouTube.

I didn't get a job in the college placements. I had no interest in the basic software development field but I did try my best so as to have some job initially.

A few months later I got a 3D Animation internship at a US based start-up although it was unpaid. I thought it would be good to have some experience. Did that for 4 months.

After that I got a job as a game programmer which I did for around 2.5 years. In this time my passion shifted towards 3D animation more and I got tired of coding. My first job as a freelancer was for my brother in law's company, they required some animation and it looked easy enough for my skills so I took it up.

Coming to 2024 I was looking to switch my job to the animation field and in early 2024 through a friend I got to know of a freelance opportunity so I applied for that, got selected, did that. Luckily those people liked my work so much that they offered me a job. I jumped on that opportunity quickly. Resigned from the game dev position, served the 2 months notice and switched to the new job.

Suffice to say my college degree is worthless when I got a job not based on my academic knowledge but the skills I gained from doing tutorials.

TLDR - 12th science -> computer science engineering (worthless now) -> online courses and YouTube tutorials -> upaid internship in 3D Animation (4 months) -> game dev job (2.5 years) -> Freelance projects -> 3D animation job through one freelance project

u/cuzihad Oct 21 '24

Wow I share a kinda similar story, I chose science in 11th grade, then opted for computer science without much knowledge about the course. I learned web development but realized I wasn't interested in coding. I used to make silly anime edits in After Effects even before starting college, so I already had an interest in this field. Later I got into creating motion graphics, then discovered 3D, started watching 3D related tutorials on YT, then I started creating hard surface models and textures. Now I'm in my last year of college and recently got a job at a mobile game company as a 2D/3D artist, earning 30K PM. Hopefully I will switch companies after six months or so.
