That's the consensus I gather from my class gathering too. Given the stagnant economy, I gather us young Singaporeans generally are a unfortunate bunch needing to contend with diminishing promotion opportunities, rising costs of living and $1million HDB championed by our multi-million dollars parliament.

It’s the best profession but one that you only know when you’re in it.
True people may whine and all, that’s human after all.
Complain this and that but at the end of the day it’s the size of the bank account that matters

Which firm pays 9-18 months bonus?

Law seems like the best profession when you’re selecting which uni course to take. You will only know whether it’s best for you when you’re in practice/ training, whether monetary wise or personality wise.
Please do remember that bonus is always to the firm’s discretion and not a market practice. Some senior assocs in small law firms only get 1 month bonus after 5 years of practice in that firm.

Is this based on facts or are you a government shill drinking the kool-aid? Happy to entertain anecdotal evidence.

I did not mean it that way. I assumed he/she was offered a TC, which was why he/she had such a keen interest in the salary and wanted to check if my information was verified.

Not sure about baker in the old days. But baker from 2015 onwards, meaning trainees going in from January 2015, all usually have first class honours plus additional prizes.
In short the top 70% of baker’s trainee intake every year can qualify for JLC anytime. It is the private sector equivalent of the JLC. CC is not really comparable w JLC cos the intake size is too small.
Even so rmb baker is like JLC. In the sense that half the cohort will leave after 2 years. JLCs usually either make AR, go back DPP and the rest (~50%) leave for private sector.
When someone say they train in baker (and without the connections), they are really good. At the same level as JLC if not more.
