Lesser than 0.5 for mid and ard there for year end bonus….because of other events upcoming 😂

Gon quit before mid yr!!

Hi, i understand that CS will receive their PB end of Mar. If i were to tender and my last day is on Apr 3, would i still receive my PB? Thanks.

However, this is against the backdrop of a bell curve, i.e. if your entire team is also high performing, then your chances of getting a B is equalised.

28M, NS, FCH, farmer, in a ministry. Got B in first year and (hopefully I don't jinx it) based on my chat with my RO and Director, I sense another B in my second year.

Posting to another policy team now, but what's different now compared to before is that there are scholars. I don't foresee any work life balance.

Still, is it worth it to keep farming and try to hit MX11 by my 3rd year in service? Honestly I'm so burned out. I guess I could (a) wing it out, try to hit MX11 before moving to another ministry/SB given the **** economy/labor market prospects; or (b) toughen it up and try to pivot to private now (lolz, with my arts degree).

Greatly appreciate any nuggets of wisdom!!

PSD will give 1.5 months again la, no matter what economic conditions. If not expect higher resignation rates.

4. Sigh still midway to 5k base. I think cuz my role was initially offered on a contract basis. A guy my age and same credentials in another ministry is alr 4.7k.

Generally you're fked based on your starting salary. Salary lower, have to farm more.

If you're still young can try your luck in private, else suck it up and farm since ageism is a thing

Just to share my experience:
Female, 2nd upper, joined ministry when I was 29 yo, 4.7k at MX12
Was promoted to MX11 2 years later and then MX11A 2 years later again. Now 6.6k+.
I think your base seems quite low.. I already think my base at MX11A is not that high..
