BUT if after grad I work first in another organisation before joining Barclays, then the salary may be lower than 50k (i.e. direct hires who are not under the graduate program will be paid differently..) So the above figures may seem very nice..but only the selected few who passed thru all the interviews and got offered into the graduate prog will draw that kinda salary..moreover foreign banks incl. Barclays are paying poor bonuses (if any) lately..just to give a more balanced perspective
The salaries there are pretty accurate, even for someone who is direct hire would minimally get that sum or +-5k.

Here are some cold-hard facts on Barclays Backoffice in Singapore:
1) Bonuses in Barclays is in the form of weeks, if any.
2) Offshoring is huge now. MANY will be retrenched in time to come.
