Logistics is an unglam job that many local grads shun, especially if you are located in Changi or Loyang or Tuas and not the HQ offices in town. From experience I would say that getting into ops management with a dip is not unheard of after years of experience and good performance. It is the civil service or the newer GLCs where paper is important but MNCs (esp US companies) tend to give more chances to competent non degree holders from the ranks.
But like as this guy mentioned, if you are thinking of more strategic or specialised management roles then no, you probably will not get a look in.

There is only accurate or inaccurate information. This forum already has enough of feel good nonsense that are incorrect. There is nothing condecending with calling a spade a spade, only people with low self-esteem issues will be concerned about that.
If people really think being a 4k+ operations manager is anything more than junior supervisory, then that person is just being deluded and/or politically correct.
