Haha I am not in tech but tech people make $99999999 monthly.
Trust me bros.

American tech giants such as Amazon Web Services, Meta Platforms, Apple and Google are dangling some of the highest salaries - 39% to 56.5% more than the market median, according to tech talent platform NodeFlair

16k only??? that can barely cover my car.

Too bad I can inherit wealth, have fun working for the rest of your life

some of my friends join crypto for quick $$$

Staying in a 5k per month condo and 10k to a Vietnamese sugar bb

Meanwhile the rest of the batch mate with traditional banking jobs are still working our way up in the rat race

Just different life decisions

yup this is true ...

i got a friend in crypto company also , making 8k monthly with 1 yoe

i think its not bad but need to take note that when u job hop , company name matters abit . if they see ure always going to those unicorn or start-ups and u apply for FAANG or large tech , they might consider your "senior engineer" role to be "junior" equivalent in their company .

theres also other reasons like if ure software test engineer , u cant hop to software engineer easily . same for a 5 yoe backend to hop to senior role in front-end.

Lol, which part did you not understand?
I am from internet company = in the tech world.

Quite a handful of my batch mates quit MA programs, banking (IB and non-IB), and some smaller tech to be real estate agents.

Even smartlocal is an Internet company nowadays

LOL...your comment made my day
wondering this smartlocal develop what sia? haha

so why the **** did you say you're non-tech then you illiterate dumbass.

stop posting.

Bro... you don't know? Develop Talents

no this is not true ...

to hit 18 - 20k as swe is very hard , u need to hit principal engineer levels and be on the highest salary band as well as work for most probably FAANG or large tech equivalent ( >50B revenue yearly )

not easy and very unlikely .

if we're talkin about those crypto or unicorn then uhh... also not really possible to be honest .... firstly crypto roles are still fairly new , highest i saw was 12k monthly and that one need 8 year experience ...

if we talking about unicorn , highest i saw was also 12-14kish, need 8 yoe and masters degree .

i not sure where u get 18-20k for SWE from , i work in tech , i can tell u this is very very rare if not, impossible unless u go USA . i hope u are not trolling ... false information like this can really waste people time .

Pls share your yoe/$$$/role too

25k per year. Typical SIM standard

here u go bro ... i posted before

Thanks, I was from one of the FAG companies and I was actually surprised that junior SWEs were not paid much more than non-tech. I think the base + bonus was almost indifferent, but what differed was RSUs. What I observed was that at every equivalent level, SWEs in F/G were paid 10-15% more purely from RSU.

But I thought that senior level SWE (TLs) would edge out significantly given that it is a more niche and select group of talent.

Now I get what you are confused about.
You’re probably not in the tech world.
Non-tech == non eng or not SWE/SDE/SRE :)
Meaning, functions in business/corporate.
Less hate please

Yes but the one that i worked for is top-notch and out of your league. Heard of shopee?

haha you're so out of touch its almost unreal

i know 2 ppl who were just offered 13k salaries as a blockchain engineer at a name-brand crypto company. both <2 yoe.

you say that you work in tech, yet you seem to be completely oblivious to how inflated tech salaries have become

your tech is the smart local ah?

You mean sweatshopee? Heard they blew their budget hiring CR7 and now are paying shopee coins instead of sgd for salary.

Bunch of pussies read straitstimes or that NoobFlare ******** site and come on here spewing nonsense.

Blah blah my friend makes 999999k at xxxx company, I can confirm, my friend told me one.

No one gives a **** how much your friends make you retard. For all we know you could be a BBFA loser with no friends or a job. Talk about being braindead.

Heard you're retarded and I was right. You are.

Seek help.

Or better yet, stay on this forum, keep posting trash you jobless cringelord.

Back to IMH for your meds, better listen to the nurse else she'll stick her finger up your poophole :)

Know quite a few friends (early or mid 30s) who made/making the switch into software engineering jobs via boot camps or government programmes.
Guess the salary is too enticing... after 2-3 years working in Tech, can easily exceed their previous salary even though they had worked in those jobs for ~8 years.

Tech damn easy to get in, the market is booming. Many fresh grads making almost 10k / monthly.

You don't need to be talented also, just learn how blockchain works and work hard for 1 month then do interviews and you're done.

Shopee also mass hiring, very easy to get in. Not sure why people don't just learn tech. I think sinkies got a problem, they can't sit down for long and code cause they've been taking it up the ass for too long.

regression to the mean. the weak will be weeded out in due time.

Haha a lot of jealous people like you always say this.

The truth is that thanks to COVID, tech is booming crazy, tech companies are hiring anyone, even idiots and lowering their standards for entry. As long as you have CS degree, you can get in.

No way you get fired unless you deliberately come late for work everyday, don't do work, go gym in the afternoon and take naps.

You have to TRY to get fired. Good luck everyone, go mass apply, easy money is everywhere in tech.

Eventually the space will be too crowded and the lousy ones who just mugged entry level skillset will get weeded out. Enjoy it while it lasts chump.

as the saying goes,

The More You Know The More You Realize You Don't Know. Sometimes ignorance is a blessing to those who think everything last forever.

might be the most stupid thing i've read this year

did your mum drop you as a baby?

HAHAHAHA

yet I'm still here for the past 2 years with a 20% promo last month hitting 9k / monthly with 2 YOE LMAO

Stay mad!

Oh the irony when you can't even type basic comprehensive English LMFAO

Started 3.5k, ending year 5 at 8k, AML compliance.

fReSh GrAdS mAKe 10k/moNTh

LMAO u wish u made 3k

stop feeding the troll la knn poobrain


TS i work in finance

6k / monthly 3rd year , started at 3.2k

My friend grad from first class in NUS Cs, got into grab, 2YOE, abt 6-7 k now

My other friend same credentials, got into Google cos of good internships, abt 9-10k

But need to be aware that those who get 9-10 K starting in SWE are the top of the batch, same as those who are in business and got into investment banking. Maybe only 1% ?

And whoever that 1% is wont be bothered to troll on this thread and sh*t on ppl

of cos we know that. we just want to troll the troll

Typical sinkie pwn sinkie mindset.

If a sinkie makes little money, gotta pwn him and talk about how tech people make much more. Then when a tech guy comes in and says he makes alot, we pwn him and say only top 1%ers can and they don't visit this forum.

Amazing.
