alot of CSB stories here.

I worked in HR in one of the ministries and very very few people make more than 120k per annum at 33 (non-scholar). 95% of them are still struck at MX11 at that age and the average annum salary of MX11 is around 90k. Their salary is around the top 10% of their age group which we benchmark against.

Working in HR, I know the real 'young' high-flyers' (earners or the top 5%) (whom we are extremely jealous of) and most do not seem like anyone who will 'waste time' on forums to ask about 'how they are doing' (we literally tell them their progression because all of them are very aggressive in doing well and wanting to know their progress) or boast about their high-earning ability in such forums.

And since we gossip quite a lot as well, being in HR, we can roughly guess who are the ones boasting here (if their story were indeed true). So their identity is actually not a secret. lol.

Thanks for the sharing. Any chance of sharing the starting monthly pay of MX9? And the age at which a non-scholar high-flyer can reach this grade?

Low flyer much? 90k per annum = 7.5k/month with no bonus. Assuming 4 months total bonus, that's 5.6k/month. Many of my friends are already at 90k per annum and we are 30 years old.

non scholars are unlikely to reach this grade. if they do, they are around 45-50. scholars can reach this grade at around 40-45.

97% retire at MX10/MX11

Banking industry? Many of your friends? 90% of your friends are already above 90kpa?
So with such progression, how much do u think u will be getting in 5 yrs time?

38 this year, $135k per annum all in. Average Joe in a stat board.

aww man.. but with a engineering degree, can one go into civil service like mindef, or experience from dsta into mindef?

is the pay really much better in civil service than stat board??

For civil service, mindef pays very highly compared to many other ministries. Workload lighter also compared to many ministries. Can really get work life balance and not hard to score good performance grade.

Not easy for private Uni grad to get into grad position in public service.

Your salary seems decent for someone with 5-6 years experience.
