        abstract = {This study investigates the growing discontent among employees concerning salary growth in private higher education institutions in Bangalore. With a focus on faculty members, the research explores the intricate relationship between management practices, performance evaluations, and the feedback mechanisms that influence salary increments. The findings reveal significant dissatisfaction driven by perceived inequities, lack of transparency, and inadequate recognition of contributions. The analysis highlights that long-term faculty members with advanced qualifications are particularly affected, leading to diminished morale, job satisfaction, and potential retention challenges. The study underscores the need for transparent, fair, and performance-aligned salary increment processes to enhance employee satisfaction and institutional effectiveness. Recommendations include revising compensation structures, improving communication, and fostering recognition to mitigate dissatisfaction and support workforce stability.},
