I'm not surprise at all if Grab and Lazada can pay much higher than even the foreign banks, otherwise why would the good people want to join. Besides these 2 are not really startups, they have endless money to splurge compare to those bottomline driven mnc.

The Ninjavan and Honestbee are real startups which most likely pay lower, but they can potentially get very big payout if IPO or get bought over by other company.

For Grab, if you can get in, it's 5-6k for fresh cs grads from NUS.

They will normally increase to 7k upon finishing probation, but I heard its not easy to get in as they are very particular on certain comptency.

Any of these start up employee here that's willing to share? So far we've just been mostly speculating.

I working @ Lazada, warehouse systems side. Getting 6.9k, 7 years exp. Benefits & bonus so-so.

grab got no aws and bonus is pathetic.

you are very obviously ********ting. lol

Grab and Honestbee pays well for software engineer roles, not as competitive for non-technical roles.

According to my peers, Ninjavan pays poorly as a startup, not a good working environment either.

Not too sure about lazada

Yup agreed. Grab pays very lowly for its driver

technically drivers aren't employees.

Agreed, foolish independent contractors
