KPMG salary talk: Need your negotiation wisdom!
I cleared the interview at KPMG Global Services for a Senior - Germany Corporate D&A role. Right now, I'm at 9.8 LPA fixed with 4.4 YOE as a Data Scientist. What fixed CTC can I realistically expect and negotiate with HR for this role? I feel like I got lowballed in my last switch, so any advice would be awesome!
