What happens if there are no local graduates want to join the audit industry?

Then this "Never mind, limpeh throw money at your face lor!!" theory will need to be adopted right?

If nobody wants to join, then u have to increase the $4.1K to $6K for A1 leh

"Limpeh" put $6K, I don't believe you all fresh graduates don't want work!!

Sure will have taker right?

Unless u say all these local uni graduates all come from well-to-do family and their family don't need them to work?

Yeah Gen Z is more keen on WLB. But people born after the 2000s want to go home on the dot and do stuff in their own life. Like go dating, dinner, sort out their things at home. Accompanied famuly.

But the naysayers sure say where got so good life? want really good money + WLB?

usually WLB = no good money.

Limpeh sure think otherwise...If still dun want work OT for me right...nevermind limpeh throw money up to 6k, limpeh see if you want OT for me

Is it because people want money + WLB (combo) too?
Maybe new hires should check if the $4.1k comes with a bonus. How do you think they are going to fund the increase?

1) Reduce bonuses (existing bonuses are on average 1 month).
2) Hire fewer staff but increase the average workload per staff.

Without the bonus, the increase compared to last time is only $200-300 more on average. The increase should be focused on matching the average market pay ($4.3k) for local fresh graduates, not because it's compensation for the higher workload.

Now the existing situation is:

- Many auditors (usually local seniors) want to exit, but the market is not good or opportunities are less desirable compared to the past. The workload has also increased for the same rank over the years.

- Competition with foreign talents makes it more difficult to command higher pay. To others, it's 20k+ RM, which can afford a luxurious lifestyle in Malaysia, but here in SGD, you can at most eat cai fan and afford HDB.

- There's quite a negative perception of ex-auditors. I don’t know if it’s because of the mass hiring of foreigners, toxic culture, or something else. potentially making it more difficult to get hired for commercial roles.

- Existing local associates (especially those in their second year) will start to put in less effort in their jobs because they don’t intend to stay long. To cut losses, most exit even before reaching senior. Fresh graduate jobs are paying $4.5k at banks, and CA has no relevance in banking.

- On the topic of CA, the paper seems to carry less value now with the many exemptions. Is the 3 year grind in the company worth it when recruiters seem to have less preference for auditors nowadays?

- For work life balance, the current assoc batch prefers not working on weekends and public holidays. If you want to define the extent of over-working, I think you can refer to the numerous posts by auditors mentioning that they want to complain to MOM. But unfortunately, we are blue collar in disguise and are not covered under the MOM Act.

Gen Z is keen on WLB… pay 4k doesn’t mean they will be willing to OT to 8pm for you.
