Cyber and SWE get the most adjustment as GT are fighting against the private sector. Due to the above, there's some grumbling for Grade >G and a high attrition rate.

hence it was announced a pay review next year but unlikely the lower D, E, F will get a lot of adjustment as the lower grade are unable to take on the >G responsibilities and also competency-based. You can argue but certain stuff still requires years of on the job experience...[/QUOTE]

May be this time also only Associate level get adjustment? They only take care fresh grad and force more senior resign.

Most ppl in tech sector don’t stay beyond 3 to 4 years anyway. I’m sure those seniors in Grade G can look for new roles and secure better offers.

I think this time confirm focused on seniors, because my RO told me there is a **big vacuum** as those seniors got poached and went on to MNC especially AWS and Microsoft.

actually, GT look at overall, that doesn't mean 7 years = high pay

also, look at the competency too..

i can work 7 years never learn anything... the skillset might stay at fresh grad too...

i didn't mean the person that posted but in an analogy..
