I had then asked for a contract for me to view the terms but was refused by HR because "the company does not practised that".

I felt so insulted! If you no longer have budget for the role then just reject me right?! Hig

What is the 1st and 2nd interview about?

for those not getting promoted not getting any notify on the increment, how many % increase comparing last year?

for manager role. Is PSA package comparable to MPA package?

Base is low but its made up thru its bonus and ad-hoc NTUC gift-aways.
To break down the bonus for ya
a. AWS
b. EBI (Company Bonus)
c. PI (Performance Incentive)

Unless you are under performance improvement plan or serving notice, [a] and [b] is pow jiak.

[c] bonus can be 0.25 - 5.5 which is pegged to your appraisal grade (C,C+,B,B+ and A) in additional there is also an internal ranking so you and me could be "B" performers but i am a higher "B" thus qualify for a slightly higher bonus multiplier.

To put it all together - assume you are a Manager drawing 8k per month.
Qualified for a "B" grade (2mths) and the company met most of its KPIs and will pay 2.15 mths
Hence, (8000 * 12) + (8000) + (8000 * 2.15) + (8000 * 2) = 137,200 or 11,400 per month

Sounds good? Maybe! but be warned that this may work againsts you if your next employer tries to lowball you using your BASE salary. Also if you somehow ended up with a C grade then its a loss of around 2-1.5 months.. again depending on the business.

Good luck!

Are you sure hard to fire in PSA? I think depends on the boss....

Really hard to fire. At most they transfer poor performers to other depts. I'm familiar as I've had a couple of poor performers transferred to mine. Average length of service here is something like 10-15 years

Is PSA really so bad? I'm about to go for an interview with them for an Assistant Ops Executive role. Any tips regarding passing the interview?
