Which firm is yours and JHK nowadays got so stuck up? My time, the batchmates, mid joiners, and some of the mgr/partners were quite ok. Granted MY (and mostly UK/AU/SG unis) maybe accounted for 20-30% of my batchmates

Firm keep hiring JHK as seniors and managers now because all the sg left within two years. Most of the sg are now associates and SM/P. The SM/P continue to stay while the fresh grads supply come in every year. The mid management are almost all Msian now. In a few years time, you will only see associates are from singapore.

As an ex big 4, it is really saddening to see the state of big 4 now. In the past big 4 is so prestigious that we only accept the 3 local uni grads. Audit quality is extremely high, now I see the firms are hiring whatever humans who can work long hours

Now lacking manpower. Accounting is deemed low end profession. Cant blame them.

When blue will revise pay for a1 & a2?

ikr. With the recent increment, now the big4 salaries are slightly above 3k, so it's around 3.2k - 3.5k (or at most 3.6k max). if a1 starting paying is 3.8k hmmm i think is possible, just need to wait a few more years

Blue just raised their starting salary for a1 to 3.8k (first class)
