omezarn | Wow seems like at least 3k is the basic. Guess i have landed myself in a horrible company | |

Unregistered | I will say it's more 3.2k without OT on average. Typically for most PMET roles, coys do not pay OT. If they do, it's a privilege not a right. | |

Unregistered | No OT is pure exploitation, the market is paying fresh grads at 3.5k + OT now | |

ChrissyBelle | Based on my experience (in the private sector for almost 12 years), as you are a "fresh grad", pay scales should not hit $3K. Try gaining experience and move on slowly. As for working hours, it really depends on work exigencies / company requirements. Hope this helps. Don't be over anxious! | |

For engineering sector, basically the norm is always NO OT PAY. period. I am a programmer and of course no OT pay, because, it is extremely difficult to justify, for example if I am playing facebook for 4hrs, I can get OT pay? So your best bet would be to get a higher basic, then you self gauge the difficulty level against how much time you need to finish them. Most people think programmer basic of 3.5k is a lot, which is not since >12hrs of work is common. dollar per hour is just not worth it. Why i am still coding? I am just typing away while typing my resumes anyways. |

Unregistered | Move. You are underpaid badly. At 2.6k for a Singaporean, you are cheaper than a S pass worker. | |

Thank you guys! Appreciate the replies.. I dont mind doing OT. But of course i would like to be paid for my OT work. I cant be working free for them daily even on weekends, which means that even though i clock in 66hrs a week on average my pay is still 2500. It has pushed me to a point that i dont mind switching to another industry. Yea i might refer them to MOM. My job is more related to QA of h/w products |

Obviously, they are using you as a quota, just go look for job, make it seem very obvious you are looking for job. ask for 2600 increase OT, you just need a place to go 1st, then approach your co for a counter offer of not less than 3200, (this is considered low, given you are working 13hours), you basically earn lesser per hour compared to an ITE working shifts. If you leave, do singaporeans a favor by refering that coy to MOM and see what they say |
