unite as in not letting the salary range drop. this was what happened to multimedia and arts students whereby the graduates kept lowering the asking price of salary. doing so damages the industry for job-seekers.....

what's the use of increase salary?? things get more expensive. better for the salary to stay the same but the prices of things get cheaper. Talk about good spending power

Why not you switch job since you have 3 years experience already.

I think the only 'fast track' to increase salary if to switch company..provided that you have at least 2-3 years experience before..

coz usually companies give 10-15% increase per annum, while you can demand 20-30% more if switch to other company..

still depends on where u end up
mnc or chinaman

chinaman expect to be paid 15-1.7
mnc u can expect around 1.8-2k

what thefryingfox said. add to it though that if you come from more reputable institutions and/or good results you should +/- from that figure as necessary.

10-15%??? I hope i am in one of those company... sob sob.. my increment this year is only 5%...

I feel that employees nowadays likes to hoop from one job to another just to get increment.. that's really a bad sign... but again, most company doesn't really appreciates the staff.... and giving out little increment.. imagine the inflation rate is 10% but the increment is only 5%... aren't we getting poorer and poorer every year? I sure wish that the government can set some kind of minimum increment for staff... at least in par with the inflation rate lah.. so that our purchasing power will not be lesser...

But from the aspect of econs, Inflation occur as ppl hv too much purchasing power.. Ppl use too much money to buy goods.. haha
