Was in a worse SME. Early days of ST still bearable under the old top management. At least increment was OK. Once the top management changed, everything else becomes mostly unbearable.

Advice for those who are looking to gain new skills often, or want to become jack of all trades, this place is not for you. Because many of their projects stretch for years, your skillset will be largely limited to what you are doing and might become too niche for the open market.

Your bosses might not want to send you for upgrading (read: expensive certification) courses because of this reason. Since you will be stuck using your current skillset for at least 4-5 years, why the need to go for training?

For current 2022 rate, how much should be offer for M2 rank with 14-15years relevant exp in ST? Is considering this offer

It's pretty low, but in general, it depends on which department you join. A super inefficient company, sometimes you got nothing to do for months. While sometimes you have to OT a lot. The good thing is their inability to attract local uni grads to join them, so quite of people are from private unis.

Understand that STE reorganised their pay and benefits. Can I ask what is the latest pay range for e5?

Cos there’s no AWS, so I’m not sure how the new pay range is calculated
