I am a software developer at Infosys and my in hand salary is 16,040/month (~$246.53)
Am I happy? Man, you already know the answer. I work in Pune, so I do have a lot of expenses. Rent, Light Bill, Internet Bill, Furniture Rent, Food Expenses, Clothing Expenses, Travelling Expenses. After paying everything, I am hardly left with any money. I belong from a lower middle class family and my father earns about 12,000/ month, with my brothers still studying (my younger brother is pursuing engineering and my youngest brother is still in 10th standard) my father has to manage the expenses by putting ornaments as collateral to loan some money from moneylenders. But he can never save any money to pay those loan back. I somehow save some money to send them, Recently my family was going through financial crisis (its very common for us), so I somehow manage to save some money and also take some from credit card and send them for a couple of months. And now, I am in debt as well. I am owe bank a sum of about 23,000 which includes about 10,000 of interest.
Everytime I visit home (I am from Mumbai), my father offers me money while I’m leaving for Pune. They know that I have money problems. He even asks me why I don’t share any of my problems with them? What should I tell them? That its not just you, now I too have debts now. The money that I somehow save for you now has to go to bank for credit card bill and its hardly getting any low.
About Work at Infosys
The average working hour is 9.15 hrs but we end up working for 11–12 hrs everyday and we don’t get paid for overtime. Infosys bills the client a huge amount for each one of us. Even if I’m paid less, I do the same work as a guy with 40,000 salary.
And the other day I read this article
Uber driver earns more than Infosys techie? Here is what a report claims
which states that a Infosys techie makes 28,975.25/month as starting salary. I laughed my heart out as don’t even get paid the nominal salary.
I often think that rather than wasting all the money my father earned on me and my studies, if he would’ve a bought a house, the money he can earn from rent would’ve more than what I can give him. Or a Car, obviously to rent on Uber
Here’s my salary slip from a couple of months ago (I currently don’t have the latest one)
