Thank you!

How about other "soft skills" stat boards, like the various Arts Council, Social service council etc?

in fact the pay structure of whole of ST(aero, elec,marine,kinetic) all sux, annual increment 2-5%, even promotion also 4-6% = fug up

Note that there is no such thing as promotion will give u +$500 to +$1000 increment in ST

ST is really for just people waiting for retirement. And they treat their engineers like dirt even though its an engineering company. My centre has 50+ headcount but more than half left during my 2yrs there. I left after a senior manager said in a centre meeting for engineers that engineers with local degrees are no good and we can leave if we don't like working here. 5 of my collegues left shortly after. We were all 2 upper and above, some with masters and one phd. We all felt that we don't need to deal with this kind of sh!t.

Annual Income 52.2K. VBonus is about 2-3months. Happy for now
