Anyways, do you really think they have a growth opportunity (sincerely asking)? to me their financials for the past 5 years looks very bad, they have gone nowhere and paying more dividend than their earnings, business equity has gone down.

In the time when covid should have a positive impact on their business, they struggled. I think the NCS business has growth and If I choose to go in, I would focus on that.

Also talking to the senior MAP, They really didn't open up on the progression and increments, which worries me a little. But somewhat understandable also cause it was on zoom with a bunch of other candidates also.

But I am actually inclining to towards the MAP as well. If in 4 years they are able to give two bumps @20% pay increase and 10% increment on the other years. It would be great already.

I think you’ll probably be in for a rude awakening if you’re expecting this level of increments. 20% increment typically only comes with a promotion and yearly increments without promotions is also highly unlikely to hit 10%.

If it were strictly between the 2 I would take the Singtel offer no question. Better comp is already a win and there is more opportunity for you to be exposed to a corporate role, generally speaking.

Means I am hong gan and might as well book a swim at Macritchie?

Otherwise, how to explain?

just say you during the gaps freelance at geylang, if it is a male boss. likely you will have a even brighter future!

Well yes, was implying 2 promotions in first 4 years and I believe that is reasonable. The numbers I got for micron (10%, 20%) are after talking to people in the company and in the role (offcourse depending on performance). What do u think is reasonable? Are u in these companies or roles?

Ignore the disbelieving boomers projecting their saltiness. I've got a few buddies in Micron (Entry level climbed to Middle management, 4-5 YOE), these numbers are indeed accurate for Micron.
