Credit analyst ah er ya i think can be considered back end ba or at most middle.

Money progression ok leh, I have worked for almost 10 years and on average my increment has been around $500 a year. Started at $2k now $7.6K.

Apple competes for people with other big MNCs such as HSBC, SCB, Citi, Unilever, P&G, IBM, Microsoft, GSK, SAP etc at the 2nd tier level which is already very very hard to get in.

I don't disagree with you on mentioning some of these company names since this is the Singapore context but no way is P&G second tier.

P&G sales & marketing related functions would be first tier in Singapore, but the rest of the support functions and supply chain side / manufacturing excellence side is actually not that strong. For e.g. I think when it comes to functions like Finance/IT/HR/Audit/Service etc. it will still not be comparable with the investment banks and big oil.

I heard P&G is filled with Indians nowadays. Not a very good environment to work in anymore.

The Indian population is relatively big for P&G Singapore, my best guess is about 40% of the workforce, but it is not as bad as it sounds.

I intern there before, by and large still OK, very typical big MNC culture, but compare to my previous internship at Chevron, IMO Chevron is still a much better place in terms of career opportunities and the quality of colleagues.

Except for brand advertising & promotion job which is a strong point of P&G because of the FMCG industry, I think for all other jobs if both Cheveron and P&G offer the same pay to a fresh grad, more likely the grad will go for Chevron.

It is very hard for FMCG as a whole to fight with investment banking / oil & gas because the perception of big money in them.

we only have the older generation to thank for this state of affairs isn't it?

Ever since I started going for interview a year ago. i would say 65% of my future employers were foreign goods.
