Advice from someone who went from 8LPA to 84LPA in a decade

I saw the IBM post on Grapevine, and seeing the positive response felt the urge to share my story as well. I tried finding my old offer letters, but I couldn't because I lost that email account. For the first 4 years of my career, I worked in IT companies. **My roles were less than stellar.** I had a nasty smoking addiction, and honestly, I was probably wasting my life away. **This changed when I joined Deloitte.** While going through some old files, I finally found my offer letter from Deloitte. It was from 6 years ago, **16LPA (with a 1L signing bonus** I was so thrilled about back then). Looking back, I never imagined I’d be where I am now, working at Google, with **84LPA CTC.** When I first joined Deloitte, the excitement of a signing bonus and the thrill of joining a Big 4 firm were more than enough. I had no grand plan, just a desire to learn and improve. Over the years, my journey took me through moments of doubt, endless learning, and unexpected growth. A few pieces of advice I’d like to share for anyone building their career: 1. **Growth is Never Linear. If it Is, You’re at the Wrong Place** Early in my career, I felt behind. Friends who jumped into startups, management consulting, or fast-growing roles like Product Management would talk about their rapid raises and big titles. I didn’t feel like I was falling behind, but I’d sometimes wonder if my slower path would pay off. In the end, eventually, **your intrinsic value catches up with your market value.** If you have a high-paying job but don’t provide value that matches it, then sooner or later you will have to concede to a lower job offer. Similarly, if you are underpaid right now but bring real skills and value to an organization, then **you are bound to achieve a great offer down the line.** So focus on adding value, money will follow. 2. **Specialize, but More Broadly** In each role, I focused on understanding the business deeply, working on projects that pushed my skills, and staying updated with industry trends. Moving to different companies at key points helped me **diversify my expertise without losing depth.** **Know when to stay and when to go.** It's hard, but you get better with age. 3. **Networking is Underrated** I realized this very late, honestly, **it took me 6 years to figure this out.** I made it a point to connect with mentors, those who had navigated similar paths or who excelled in areas I admired. Those conversations don’t have to be formal; sometimes it was just a chat near the watercooler, sometimes a quick Slack message. But those relationships brought **insights and encouragement I couldn’t have found alone.** 4. **Negotiate, but also out-deliver anyone** I’m a **BIGGG believer in fair negotiation**; if you bring value, know your worth. However, each pay raise or promotion felt meaningful only when I felt my contribution matched it. The most satisfying moments weren’t just about the LPA numbers but the **challenges I’d overcome and the projects I was proud of.** This is something I feel goes wrong when people glorify salary numbers but not impact on platforms like Quora, Reddit, and even Grapevine. **Don’t seek validation; make your own path.** So here I am, ten years later, looking at this piece of paper from Deloitte that marked my start. It’s a reminder of the journey, **one filled with doubt, hard work, and quiet growth.** To anyone who’s just starting or feels behind in their career, know that there’s no “one right way.” **Every career path has its own twists.** All I can hope is that this was helpful to you.
