Default M&E consultancy firms

Hi, I'm a Malaysian currently working in Hong Kong in an international consultancy firm for around 3 years, after graduating with a degree in Electrical Engineering from a uni in HK. I am also studying part-time Masters in HK and will be graduating this year.

As I wish to relocate to Singapore after my Masters, what are the job prospects of (electrical) engineers in M&E consultancy firms in SG? What is the average salary that I can request in my job applications with 3 years of working experience? How is the construction industry like in SG?

From my research, it seems that there are not many registered M&E engineers in the M&E consultancy firms in SG. What is the common route to be a chartered engineer in SG? In HK, one normally charters through IET or CIBSE.

I'm not an engineer. But based all these posts, it seems like Civil and Chemical Engineering are the only ones that aren't that bad.

High performers whom I know are getting $250k all in after 9 years and these people are mostly no longer working as process engineers. Average performers are around $160k all in. Low performers around $120k all in.
This is inaccurate. I’ve been with EM for 9 years and have tons of my Uni mates with me in this company. The average annual is only slightly above 100k and it stagnants. My friends in banking doing sales, treasury management etc (non asset management ) are drawing around the same. Em does pay above engineering pay grade and closer to banking but to say an average performer drawing 160k is too high. It’s comfortable but not that great.

Last I heard it's around 3k to 3.2k. You can aim for 3.2k during negotiation.
