If you are that young should think big like how to get into big MNCs, pick up niche skills, get big promotions, build up professional network etc. Why get so hung up over whether is 3 or 5% pathetic increment every year or 14 or 15 months package... This kind of retirement mentality is not what a 20+ year old should be thinking.

Different ppl have diff objective. Some maybe hunger for progression but some rather to have it stable. And why hung up on MNC? Next time u get retrench at 40s u will definitely regret but of course u may succeed but how many ppl can succeed in private? Im the end, its up to individual. I am from both public(past) amd private (present), both have thwir pros and cons

are you under MX scheme? if yes, all your wish will definitely be granted! Probably you will get 15/16 months and above.. 3% is an avg unless your performance is really bad.

???????????

Working in HDB or LTA better?
Back end job, fresh grad degree post in finance

Same qns as above.

Want to know in terms or workload, benefits, work life balance etc.

Actually u all like that ask not correct. Even within the stat board/min, different department will have diff styles, standards. Not all departments and divisions are equal and have the same workload. Also , between job grade or level also have diff workload.

So u all ask about work life balance all these, dun expect accurate answer.

Very good advice

HDB or LTA?

HDB, in the words of the minister, 'makes millions of dollars in losses every financial year and has to be bailed out by MND yearly' while LTA is generally a self-funding stat board (think of the amount of ERP and COE $ they collect).

LTA's flexi benefits like their transport card is slightly better. My friend at HDB laments that most people get stagnant for years. Anw the final decision is up to you la. Assuming that you're working in the HQ building, both agencies are more or less within the central area.
