Be prepared to lose your S1 if the revised salary doesnt change from 4,700 to to 5,600 next year

Be patient guys, many malaysian seniors are gonna get kicked out soon due to not meeting EP quota

Partners are waiting to kick them out
The revised salary is inclusive of CPF? With CPF, it’s $5,760

all they know is pick sample and vouching

they expect 5k+ when leaving too? so most are stuck. and most seniors are waiting for PR, some get PR sure leave because no encashment. but PR now hard to get bro, EP also hard to get HA HA HA HA HA

Which firm? How come your exposure as S1 so little ? S1 with 2 years would have touched all those above. (Maybe except accounting software)

Unregistered When I was still in big4, I was put into a listed engagement where everyone was jhk except me, one A1, EMs and the EP. Istg I dk how they even managed to pass the interview. Experienced A2 can’t even differentiate accruals and prepayments. Seniors only know how to roll PY paper blindly without using brain. I lose count how many times client has emailed to EMs to complain about the team’s quality. Not to mention that bunch of jhk only know how to point fingers at one another when things go south. Luckily my performance didn’t get drag down by this useless team and got above average rating.

Thanks goodness I’m out of here and managed to escape this year’s peak when they insist me to lead this engagement with the same bunch of incompetent team mates.

One of the big 4, it’s 59% Malaysian and 39% Singaporean seniors.
old news. recent number of new hires is at a new time low due to fewer hirings (just see the number of interviews conducted since last bonus payout to date), some EP renewal rejected, and some EP applications rejected.

for turnover, wait till 30 jun to see isca's report

But now, turnover for S1/S2 is at all time low. There is kinda like oversupply and partners are gonna make it more difficult to promote
