first of all, congrats , you must be a quite a top student to be offer as audit associate at there ( the chance of mid and big4 firms to recruit malaysian as audit associate is very slim, as they prefer local grads)

In terms of benefit and culture,not that bad la, if compared against other midtier


1year bond
no laptop bond ( means you no need to buy the laptop)
5 day mc (without cert means additional leave!)

i think audit firm every where is the same, just go in and get experience. smile.gif

Do they offered you SA1 or SA2? SA2 should be around 2.8k.

You forgot to mention that you need to serve 3 months notice upon resignation and you need to pay back 3 months of your monthly salary if you breach the bond. In term of bonus entitlement, if you resign and serve notice, you will not get it. Quite a lot of opportunities cost consideration here. But again, every (mid-tier) firm in SG would be the same too.

I'm not from CH. My good friend from there. She left CH and joined my firm when she was senior year 1, and downgraded to second year junior when she joined my firm (of course she willing to do so cause of higher pay).

I think salary is not secret la in audit.

For mid tier ( i can say all mid tier roughly the same)
AA get around circa 2.5K
AA year 2 get around 2.8 - 3k
Senior year 1 get around 3.3 to 3.4k
