how many years working experience do you have? I dun see how you can earn $260000k a year. are you refering to the fees your company collected from Gov?

How much HDB is selling their flats does not determine how much your firm will earn. architecture offices tender their fees through Gebiz. Probably the lowest tender fee will get the job, but they will also consider the track records of the office. The fees are NOT based on HDB's selling price, but a percentage of the construction cost.

Now HDB projects are opened for tender to the public. No longer only by Surbana

i have ten yrs working experience locally and am also a registered. i earn about

i have about 10 yrs working experience and am also registered here. i get about 120k pa. its not great but i dont think its the lowest around.
so if $ is your focus, i dont think this is the best career.

I am too tired to remember how much I am paid.

For the guys getting 2-3K, change jobs. Seems to be the only way to get a raise in this industry.

Architecture is a professional career , if you are looking to make $$$ , I dont think this is the industry for you. Finance and Banking are prob the best paid jobs in sgpore,
