Bear in mind that new associates have to handle a lot of workload given that the seniors are leaving anytime. Can be more than 12 hours unfortunately at the start for weeks / months

Can work through the night depends on your team / size of client / timeline. Even if you do not want to OT, can. But if managers ask for the status, how are you gonna explain when you choose not to OT which means the work is not completed..

Heard that blue has recently adjusted salaries.
Does anyone have the adjusted pay-scale for blue - both advisory and audit?

There is no formal “partner track” in Singapore as far as I know.
If you mean the informal process of identifying peoples for partner admission, that doesn’t start until you clock several years as Senior Manager.

Thanks for the response guys! Just curious, how do one actually tell whether the senior/manager is on partner track? Get in good books in front of the partners? Ability to bring in clients?

feeling “delighted”.. don’t say this too early.. you should think about enjoying your last few days of holidays first before horror begins seriously.
