My opinion is the CS is better than private in term of salary.

People around my age group 32-34 at MX11 getting 6k-7k salary basic...

Some of my friends as well as me in private sector still getting low 4k as basic...and would need another 8-10 years (with 2 promotions) to hit 6k basic...


By that time those counterpart of my same age group would be getting 8k-10k basic even when they had hit the glass ceiling.....

CS for the win!!!
Yes, in CS and with little effort and average/under average C performers can get to 6-7k in mid 30s quite easily...

So the question is, can an average C performer in CS automatically parachute themselves into a HOD management position in the pte sector at age 40? Don't forget there are loads of FTs that you have to compete against, unlike CS.
