I earn too well at a lala company, but now I have no way out
Around 3 years ago, I joined a small local company through references. I come from a basic tier-3 college background. I started with telecalling, then slowly moved into sales, marketing, advertising, strategy, and management.
Now I pretty much handle most parts of the business. The company is small, so there are no proper fixed roles or departments. We have small teams and I manage them. The owner rarely comes to the office anymore.
I earn around 1.7 lakh per month in cash (yes its "that kind" of a company, so there’s no PF or formal structure. If needed, the company can start transferring salary to my bank account for proof.
The problem is that the company’s future doesn’t look stable anymore. Financially things are getting worse and I feel salaries may stop in the future.
I want to switch jobs but I’m confused:
- What role should I apply for?
- How do I explain this kind of experience to other companies?
- Will companies take this experience seriously without PF?
- What type of companies should I target?
- How should I present my work experience on my resume?
Would appreciate honest advice from people who have made similar switches.
