Well..
What you say is also correct but i was talking in relative terms. e.g.
same no. of experience in embeded could fetch double the salary.. and
with due respect to our sys admin. profession.. IIT grads. would be more
useful in designing more technical stuff like DSP / FPGA etc.. They
would be more apted to work on Wireless/ embdeded technologies ... than
doing all those kind of routine sys admin work...
Working in technologies development would always be highest paid,
non-redundant..and highly skilled jobs..Increments for the Sys admin
would always be lower as compared to development engineers... it is
market economics .. demand and supply type..
Like in Embeded and in ASIC.. it is not unusual to get 5+ lacs above
after 3 years of experience.. and it would continue to double every 3-4
years or so..
BTW I am curious to know as to what is the average salary for Indian sys
admins in say any MNC for following no. of year's experience.. ( assume
that guy has required skills )
1-2 yrs
3-5 yrs
6-8 yrs
10 yrs
10+ yrs
Is there any salary survey for Indian IT guys.. ?
I consider big money as 10-12 lacs p.a. for a 8-9 years experience
engineering graduate..which is possible these days in Technology
development areas..
