GF salary Vs. My salary
Me and my gf have been dating for 5 years. Back in 2020, I started my career with a package of ₹5 LPA. Over the years, I’ve reached ₹22 LPA in 2025. She started her journey with ₹3 LPA(2020) and is now earning ₹8 LPA(2025). We’ve been in a live-in relationship for around 2 years, and the idea was to share expenses equally. But, equal sharing never really happened. If we go to a café she likes, especially with friends, I will pay the entire bill. We only split the house rent and grocery bills. I told her lots of time to cut down these costly cafe expenses or earn more money, increase your package, study and work hard, but.....she is now in her comfort zone. Being from a tech background, I have seen people upgrade their skills and package for a good life in metro cities. I am ready to support her in her studies, but she is like I am earning enough for myself.... No, you are not. I love her, but I don't know how to overcome this issue between us. Please suggest!

Dislikes

Every company / organization would have some or the other which people would dislike. It could be people you work with or anything like that. IT does apply to ICON as well, but it has not made any great impact in my career growth, as I have very good friends, leaders and managers here at ICON. So nothing makes me feel disliked about ICON.

Dislikes

I used to work in Icon till Sep-2022. One thing which I felt on a personal level is the higher management does not pay attention to its employees requests/inputs/feedback. The environment though not toxic, it is not progressive as well. Favouritism is a major flaw which I noticed among the managers. Training is improper. You're directly asked to start doing the activities without training or feedback. Leave policy is on first come first serve basis. Even if the team has adequate members to take up additional tasks, you cannot take a leave if another employee has already availed. Only one person is allowed to avail leave during a time period. Hike and appraisal is not worth discussing. 7 days public holiday support is mandatory.
