But 30s have, cause we are sandwiched batch

Stay woke salaryman, be a business owner rather than an employee…

It's less than 1%. Some batches have zero people left after 10 years.

Anyway did you know SME audit firm partners can earn just as much?

CFOs are earning 400k-600k in big companies too. It's just that it's spread out across basic pay, bonus, incentives, and all that.

With the skills you have, you definitely have more options than just B4 audit partner.

Nah.. it’s much less than 10%.

Someone in my training group did the maths.

Every year got 100+ fresh associates start as A1

Then around S2 most people leave the firm, and new mid career joiners come in from Malaysia or elsewhere. Let’s estimate 50. So it becomes 150.

Then we only saw 1 newly promoted partner in last 3 years.

By this logic, the chance is maybe 1 in 450 to make it.

You don't even need employer's letter. Even payslip is enough.ICA knows there's those scumbag SMEs who would fire anyone applying for a PR.
