Considering between this and a trading analyst role at a small firm. 3.2k vs 3.8k. I think the prospects over there are better long term but 600/mth difference is quite a big deal at this salary quantum.

Then again not sure if I want to do ops long term, or if there is any career upside.

I think you should join DBS ops. Got the brand name and the perks aren't all that bad.

I'm deliberating between this and a finance role which is offering 3.5k...

The prospects will be quite limited without some accounting background. Better to take CPA at some point.

You don't wanna do ops long-term, or even medium-term. It's not gonna look good on your resume. Plus the work is low-skill and progression, bonuses will go to front and middle offices first.

Was thinking this as well. Might take up the trading analyst role and grind for 1-2 years.
