Why quit? Jobs are scarce nowadays

for my Co, 0% after finishing probation period. What is the big deal of finishing a probation period that warrant a pay raise?

yah. after confirmation get pay raise is different from the norm already.

talk about it only after one year and review bah. why job so hard to find nowadays u all also keep changing job?

I change once every 2 years i think quite frequent and i read some of u change every 3 months.

Actually I wasnt thinking of the tax part
But your pay day is on the final day of the month?
Mine's on the 10th, meaning if i leave on the 11th with 1 day notice i'll have to pay back the remaining days of the month that I've already received

quite surprise to hear that it's normal for not getting a pay raise after confirmation. please don't get me wrong but at least through the people i know, they do get a pay raise after confirmation, but it's in Malaysia though. the last job that I rejected back in Malaysia, they do let me know my salary during the probation and after the probation too when they send me the offer letter. but i rejected the job because of some other reasons.

My payday is on 28th of the month.
Alright, noted. Thanks

How's the MY package like since they know you are working in SG? You ask for the salary in your application or they offer you within their budget?

One quick question, do you guys prefer to keep SGD or change it back to RM and keep after get the pay check?

u single or married?usual SGD1k spending per month for single would be on the high side....
Saving SGD1.6k per month...would be still much much better than trying to save up RM4000 back in MY.....every SGD dollar save its MYR3+/-

^ You mean spending $1k per month for someone single is on the high side?

Salary offer in Sg is not too high actually. I notice most of them work out very detail JD, it specified skills, domain, product, in a way that very detail. U can put high unless that position is exactly what u have been through.

Yes...because i get the idea of him saying that SGD1.6k savings per month is not good enough...
SGD5 per meal x 3 a day x 30 days for a month...thats SGD450 for meals...hp another 50 bucks...
public transport 100-150 a month...thats SGD650....still got another 350....misc expenses 100-150 for 1 person per month is more than enough. So i'm saying that he/she could save up even more...to maybe even SGD1.8k++ per month

Who can tahan eating SGD5 meals every single day of the month man...
Even those guys who come as fresh grad need some entertainment

Hardcore money saving mode...

Nope...saved enough to get married in KL...n also enough to buy a resale HDB flat!! LOL

Sleep below bridge ka bang.

Best I could do is $1.1k with company's free food every workday.

Why la this thread always talk about how to save money. Talk la on how to spend. Like where is good Makan place. Where to hang out
