the cap for MX10 is $11k+

Is that a norm? Do you think most civil and public serve to by age 35 able to reach this amount?

Anyone with public/civil service HR experience to shed some light on this?

If amount in question = 8,865 x 12 = $106,380, then most will hit it by 35.

However, if amount = 8,865 x 17 = $150,705, only some will hit it by 35 depending on scheme of service and performance

does anyone know what is the typical time frame for a MX10 to get to MX9?

most prob never....

disagree.

the MX10 has to carry the balls aka angkat bola that particular MX9's post that he wishes to replace.

and prays very hard that MX9 retires.

It depends on your CEP. The higher, the faster

Fk slogged my ass in my first year only to get c+. Fkthis

2012 - 2650 -- private sector
2013 - 3250 -- joined SB
2014 - 3550 -- confirmation (B-)
2015 - 3650 (C+)
2016 - 4040 -- promoted (C+)
2017 - 4200 -- resigned in Jun (C+)
2018 - 4700 -- joined Ministry in Jan as MX12 (HR said my years of exp in SB are relevant)

Anyone knows if a promotion is likely next year?
2nd upper local uni, no NS

Typically 2-4 years will promote from MX12 , from this trend, it is possible to get promoted next year provided your boss have pipeline for you (For Performance review) and the assignments/task that you are handling is of a certain size and visibility.

You would roughly know if your boss like you, and the feedback from your colleagues to get some sense if you will promote.

I understand that AVC includes 13-month bonus. So 2017 total AVC includes 13mth + 0.5 months variable bonus https://www.psd.gov.sg/press-room/pr...d-payment-2017?

I understand that this is separate from performance bonus. So on average, a person in PS can expect around 3.5 months bonus taking into account 2017 AVC (1.5 mth AVC + ~ 2 mths PB)?

AVC and 13th mth are separate components. AVC includes mid-year and year-end payment, typically ard 1.0 mth, except 2017 when it was 1.5 total because of good economic growth.

PB actually range from 1.5-2.0 mth for average performance; depends on whether you are in ministry or SB, some particular scheme or actual job designation.

13th mth isn't actually a bonus, as explained in many other places.

when u resigned, then went interview for the ministry post, did they ask why u resigned?, I mean u resigned because u found a new job in the private sector?, did u put the new job at ur resume?

Bumping thread for PB discussions this year :)

when do we get notice of promotion/increment in CS? whens the earliest?

If your annual increment month is April and if you are promoted, you should be notified by your HOD some time towards the end February or latest second week of March. In the case of increment, you will be able to see the increment in your April pay notice.

CNY is typically the festive season for sharing such good news. Those high up have already gotten their "notification" in advance.

End Feb so early? Actually would our directors already know which officers got promoted by now?

I just joined the public sector back in sept. And from then till now, i am fairly certain i have done and amassed so many projects that warrants a gd grade. But will my grade still be the default c despite good performance?

You haven't even hit a full 6 months. If you get anything higher than a C, I would be very surprised.

I joined in November two years back, received 1.85 prorated PB the next April so I believe C+ is possible. To get a B I think you'll need to show a lot of highly visible deliverables, especially when senior management doesn't even know who you are.

Quantity of projects is not equivalent to quality of projects. You have only joined for 6 months, how much value do you think you have added to the organisation? This is before even considering the projects that your peers have done and the value they added. PB is always about how much of your KPI you have achieved and did you go above & beyond.

I joined CS in Jun so have been in service for 6.5 months as of 2018 year-end, will I still get default C, or will I be graded based on actual performance evaluation? I have done the "mid-year" confirmation SAR. Thx in advance.

Depends on your gender and age.

It's already decided by January, and HR usually concur unless in exceptional cases.

Hmm so by now your Director may already know who got promoted?

This is interesting, I am male, MX11. Worked for some years in the private sector.

Yes, since he is one of the final few to sign off on promotions.

Will PB notification be out on 18 Mar this year?

My Guess is on 16 as based on last 2 years was announced on an Saturday

Currently in stat board, my history
2013 - joined ministry 3300
2014 - 3600 C
2015 - 3900 C+
2016 - 4300 (jump to stat board) C+
2017 - 4600 C
2018 - 4900 B
2019 -?? (likely B also)

So my qns, will i get promoted?
What will be my increment?

Pls provide more info on your background (degree type, with or without NS) and MX levels for each salary point.

Will we know if we get promoted too?

Promotion is depend on each ministry.. I believe each has their own time frame..

mx13 - 3650 - C
MX 12 - 4000 -C+
MX 12 - 4260 - B
MX 12 - 4520 - B
MX 11 - 5200 - A
MX 11 - 5800 - B+

33 years old with NS. How am i doing? I have been getting As and Bs for years. Even the first year after i got promoted to mx 11.

This is your first job?

yes first job after graduation in a ministry.

From a stay board, my director announced promotion last year on 8 Mar. Official list out on 31 Mar.

Getting 2 Bs will get promoted in april of the 2nd B year?
