you grad in 2004 ? same my batch
i still only 65k

don't compare la. maybe your job is less risky than mine. there are many factors to consider besides monthly base salary.

annual variable bonus
job stability
industry outlook
career advancement opportunities
knowledge enhancement, etc etc

your base pay may be lower but if the above factors favour you more, you will catch up and overtake me in due course.

career is over a span of 30 to 40 years. there will be ups and downs.

Station Manager
 

Hi There,

I am planning apply for the Station Manager job. How is the posting like.....and how long will you be in a specific country??

Railway station or MRT station?

Trainee station Manager
 

Have you applied? Did you get in?
If so, please share experiences...not sure if it still as bad as many current Station Managers have experienced.

Good to share more if there are any current Station Managers here. This is for SIA btw.

let's break it down. i would consider this average.

if you're 30yo means u have been working for about 5 years. assuming in a non finance, non civil service role,

1st year (2009): $2,800
2nd year: $2,950
3rd year: (assume promotion): $3,400
4th year: $3,550
5th year: $3,800

Assume AWS + 3 months bonus, total package = $60,800

does that sound right?

Station Managers are AOs, ie if you come back to Singapore your title will be Executive/AM. Country/Region Managers can be senior AOs or junior managers, back in Singapore you will be section manager or full manager.

generally each rotation is 2-3 years. you start off as an Asst Station Manager in a big station (more than 1 flight a day). you then go to a smaller station as Station Manager (1 or less flights a day). generally you will get 1 good posting (eg Europe, US, Aus) and the next one will be a hardship posting (eg India, Pakistan), then good, then bad..

most Station Managers last 2-3 rotations before either taking up Country Manager posting or coming back to Singapore.

Please la!
90% of you come here talk cock only.
