In between my jobs, I had the opportunity to join a stat board. Certainly not my cup of tea at the much slower pace of work. Annual increment is so so; not fantastic. Based on the assumption, I doubt I would have reach my current base salary if I decide to stay on for another 3yrs.

Public sector's promotion is kind of slow as I gathered. No offence..but its for those who like a relax, non challenging and stable work life balance. You gain some..you lose some.
are you in engineering private sector(non-oil/gas)?

you not from Financial/accounting/IB/banking right?
