If people does not give you senior engineer latest at the 5th year, they are telling you to go implicitly.
senior engineer Year 3 -
You can stuck here for rest of your life, but most engineer do not mind if their salary stagnant at around 5k
principal engineer/asst manager Year 8 -
With some luck, a boss who like you, and a reasonably good company, you may get principal engineer at Year 8, and stuck there for rest of your life.

I look at the civil service salary forum, there are lots and lots of ******** similar to engineer salary forum. I am personally in ministry. Take 2nd lower honor teacher as example.
Join GEO 1: 3k
Year 1 after
NIE GEO 1A1 : around 3.5k
Year 3-5 after
NIE GEO 1A2 : above 5k
Turnover rate: horrible, within 5 years more than 50% resign despite good $$$. Being in ministry and private sector, I 1000% assured you that you find the most wicked people there in government job.
