What is the difference between a Rs 60 lakh per annum and a Rs 2 LPA job? The difference is not just the amount of zeroes. Taking to X, a Bengaluru-based tech professional outlined the difference between the two jobs. The difference is as wide as night and day. Taking to the microblogging platform, Srishti wrote that the Rs 2 LPA job pays the employees peanuts yet there are sky-high expectations such as : Being available all day, every day, loyalty, having your laptop on even during vacations and festivals, subtly manipulating employees to work overtime by framing it as “learning opportunity,” referring to employees as family. “Asking for a raise is “attitude problem”– two week notice period? how dare you– Saturday “optional” but your manager is watching– Diwali bonus: a box of sweets and a thank you email– exit interview: “after everything we did for you,” she vented. — srishticodes (@srishticodes) On the other hand, the Rs 60 LPA job respects the employee’s time and acknowledges their worth. It focuses on getting the work done, not bothering workers on their day offs, bosses that delegate work happily, fostering a high-trust culture with little to no micromanagement, appraisals based on productivity and freedom to take PTOs. Her post went viral. Responding to the post, one X user wrote: “Lived the pain, 100% agreed. The difference here is that you’re doing real impactful work in the former. Which is more valuable that being micro managed.”Another user quipped about how the lowest paying jobs have the most unrealistic expectations. “The 2 LPA job forgot to mention: 'Must have 5 years of experience in a tech stack that was invented last year.”“Low ctc companies in india act like they own your soul to justify their own inefficiency..” said another X user. Another wrote: “At 60LPA they buy your skills. At 2LPA they try to buy your entire personality..”
