Guys, i'm having a dilemma and would like to ask all the sifu for some opinion.
I'm a civil engineering student (going to grad in one semester) and i'm under a scholarship bond from a local GLC (construction/developer)
I'm anticipated to serve my bond for 3 years ( according to the agreement), however, now they had developed a new program (graduate program), in which the program would last for 5 years and i will be bonded to an extra 3 year after the bond ( total 8 years).
The program would train me in order to become a PE/IR and will borne all the costs associated with it. However i am doubting the quality of the program as i had attended some of their program before and it was just bad and boring.
I'm still considering which option to take, 3 or 8. As i had some previous bad experience of the company culture during placement with them (2 times internship).
Any advice sifuss?
I'm surprised nobody asked this question - what happens if you break the bond?I'm a civil engineering student (going to grad in one semester) and i'm under a scholarship bond from a local GLC (construction/developer)

You need to be able to answer that question before you do your cost benefit analysis. If you can simply break the bond by paying a nominal amount of fees, I don't see why you should ignore this offer.
You need to think about the benefits too. I have no idea what program or which company you are talking about, but in my company, people who have been identified and placed into a program will get exposed to higher level stuffs (including exposure to senior management) much earlier, and hence their career will be fast tracked. In my company, not being placed in a fast track program places you in a distinct disadvantage against your peers who are placed in a fast track program. If you are really so damn good, you will be able to pay or find a way out of your bond when you eventually want to jump ship.
