ST Electronics

Does that apply to all SWE roles as well? :/

Has anyone completed Digital Academy Program under ST recently for software engineer role??

Wondering how the whole course is like and if the workload is manageable (OT a lot?)

Also curious about the culture in ST at the moment.

If you prove to be competent, they will lump more work to you and take the credit. Any requests for raises or promotion is always met with "do first, then we X later" attitude.

More often than not, you will always have teammates that make you wonder how they get in. Spoiler alert, the same goes for the management level as well. Like someone said previously, parachute down one

Here the background check on education is quite dubious. Got plenty of ppl saying they are from NUS but can perform worse than diploma holders.

Is this on top of the normal annual increment? So if the yearly increment is 4%, the promotion adds slightly more than 4% on top of it?

For de bonus and increment. First year: no bonus cos there’s only performance bonus which is for the work done the year before. Increment will only happen every July, if you join Jan 2023, your increment will be split into two portions, first in Jan 2024 and your final incremented pay will be in July 2024.

There are also a lot of salty people as fresh grad pay is higher than theirs.

Lol. So low. Can't believe ST pay you 4.7k base salary for SWE role

how much bonus you all got this year? i got only a measly 2.1 months. worse than last year!!
