Of course tier 1 BB is the best but working at somewhere like SC/HSBC is the worst of both worlds. Low job stability and pay also not high

Yes u r right that DBS pays the best of the 3 local banks. But I am not sure if can match HSBC/SC/Citi... depends on the role I guess? OCBC and UOB are the 2 laggards to DBS, not just in terms of size and reputation but also pay.

Exposure is good and I’m recognised by my bosses (...just not reflected in the pay lol) but next year’s increment (if any) will be limited because I was just promoted this year.

Received an offer @ $5000 doing the same thing except I won’t be managing anyone and my days of leave have been reduced (from 23 to 17). OT most likely not required. Progression more limited as people here are in “retirement” mode.

Is it rly a no brainer to leave? FWIW, I do enjoy my work and the environment at my current workplace, though I don’t think it’s too bad at the new place too.

sales support is do what? 4.1k 5 years is really pathetic honestly

To above poster, see this

You’re underpaid, but the offer is still an approx. 20% increment which is OK. I would take it if I were you, if you don’t have any other offers. Much of salary/job progression depends on circumstances and luck. There are only so many positions in BB/foreign banks anw so don’t be too disheartened by the comments here. Continue to keep a look out for opportunities even when you’re in your new role, and don’t make the same mistake of spending too much time in the same organisation.
