How does the XT XC scheme compare to the MX scheme ah? I actually never understood what level is to what level. Is it fresh graduates come in at XT5 = MX13?

Not true leh. I have been getting less than 5% increment as a XT6 for so many years.
This is so unfair?!?
And my starting pay is lower than the newer incoming staff already. What is going on??

Within C got different levels meh?

And also, is your increment per year same % for all the C graders?

Should be slightly different for different divisions based on division performance. But should not differ much for lower grade officers.


XT6
B - 2.93
C - 1.8 -2.0

XT7
B -
C -

really feel like kena scammed. only to make base pay look higher so can get fresh grads to join.

salary = x
bonus multiplier = y

before split,
annual salary = 12x + x + xy = 13x + xy

after split,
salary = (13/12)x
annual salary = 12(13/12)x + (13/12)xy = 13x + (13/12)xy

if maintain overall package assumption is right, then
if bonus (2022) = 3.22 = xy
bonus (2023) =
3.22xy = (13/12)x(new y)
new y = 2.97

so yes i guess 2.93 is about there. in fact slightly lower 😅 probably to offset civil bonus too
if the annual increment quantum is not increased (to make up the 13th month),
then it’s essentially a decrement packaged as an “increment”

yup, mine was less than 5% too as XT6, what was your starting pay and how many yrs exp you had when you came over?

5%, but cos not full year, prorated to 3.5%. Did clarify that others got 5% or close to that thou.

Ot maybe your salary is higher, and they gave a fixed increment amount?

Actually the increment quantum should be the same across salary grade and performance grade.

if you’re XT6 with performance grade B, whether you earn $5k or $8k, you should be getting the same eg $500 increment. That’s why there’s a difference in %.

To give a % annual increment would be unfair to people with difference honors / different gender (those with additional NS pay). Only those one time ad hoc salary revisions are based on %. Annual increments are fixed quantum, unless you have hit salary ceiling

Yo yo yo hold up for the slower ppl like me. So you're saying we got gaslighted??
No way right? So we got gaslighted????

annual increment is never a fix percentage. whoever says 5% yearly doesn't know the reality. once your salary is near to the max of your grade, your percentage will starts to drop. thats how c grade is always around 3% to 5%
