Current I interviewed for a company, and they're lowballing me saying we have equal pay and we cannot go higher. But we have 6 months appraisal cycle, with double digits hikes. Not sure if I should join? Would like some insight...

      There are 2 things:

      a. I checked on levels, the offer they have extended, falls under the average of top 10 companies.

      b. They say they've maxed out, shall i keep looking, because a similar company offered me same compensation with 10% less base after having competing offer.

      what would you suggest?

    Are they ok with you working at half your throughput until after the 6 month and said double digit hike?
