How much do you earn and save?

31M in professional services, single

Food: $300

Although I'm drawing slightly higher based on several others around my age range who have shared their details, I do however need to qualify that I have close to 10years of working experience, not in a big4 firm. Most professional who are in the Big4 would have been made a SM by the 7-8th year mark earning at least $9k gross.

I hope I can look for better opportunities during this covid pandemic, but at the same time thankful that I have a job now

Ikr, it goes without saying that the figures reported by the users here only made up of a small, not miniscule, percentage of the working population here in Singapore.

Hi anyone know the average pay range FAANGs dish out? For the various roles - SWE, Trust and Safety, Marketing, Business Analytics etc
