To OP on whether you should pick up programming.
I think the qn is do you want to be a software engineer? Do you like the idea of being an engineer where you solve problems with the tools you have (in this case is software). When you start learning programming it can be all fun and games. But bear in mind that the more complex things can be abit dry and mundane. Also another key qn to ask yourself is do you like learning in your free time. Many engineers have a strong passion for this (of course not everyone), and enjoy spending their nights learning new technical things that interest them. I guess if you were previously in non-technical role, the key things is software engineering is an entirely 'technical' role which can be a big change. There is no like fluffing your way through. |

Programmer are the modern age slave. Construction worker. Garbage collector... You can go into food industry or health care. If anything. This two industry will always be there. Finance also.. But finance can retrench etc. Entertainment industry very risky. Tourism hotel all those dream job became nightmare... Yep. Food, delivery, health care, finance. And maybe tech also haha. Tech got richer during covid.. But definitely not programmer. Cause programmer is bangla. |

Sadly, the outdated guys misinformed others, but I dont see the trend to slow down. Singapore is at the early stage and salary for engineers will start to pick up with the other region like Japan, London, and US. |

Google Facebook etc is USA company. So they pay usd salary. Which by conversion rate is already high. But within USA its normal... E.g software developer in USA can hit 100k above annum. Not need in Google etc. Singapore software developer can't even hit 60k per annum. Sgd. People is 100k per annum usd. So ofc. Google Facebook etc will pay you higher.. Cause they are paying unless compared to their own USA programmer... 7.5k is only 90k sgd. So they already underpaid you compared to if they were to hire an American programmer. |
Actly bytedance pay for software engineer in singapore is quite high. The fresh grads are getting arnd 100k/annum packages. Not sure what role you applied for but are you sure is software engineering, and not like testing or something?

But willing to work for PRC company. In my opinion all those PRC in Singapore should try for the job and priorities given to them.. |
Long story short, how many people can actually make it to Bulge Brackets/Unicorns/Big Tech fresh from uni?
Just a handful. |
