Is this worth it? Most of my batch mates are already senior engineers
that's an ok offer if you consider the following typical farmer scenario for male, 2nd upper or better, engineering.

1st year: 4500 (fresh grad as PE)
2nd year: 4700 (4-5% merit increment)
3rd year: 5150 (10% promotion increment to EPE)
4th year: 5350 (4-5% merit increment)
5th year: 5570 (4-5% merit increment. This is where you'd be if you had joined LTA as fresh grad)

One thing to take note is that it'll likely take another 2-3 years before you're considered for SPE, if you take up the EPE offer now. Do factor that into your consideration if your main concern is that you're lagging behind your peers in terms of titles.
