Agreed....really underpaid...

Less than reasonable.

You may want to look around, equipped yourself with additional skills, build a strong networking and see where you can fit better (higher pay) in a new organization.

[FONT=Times][SIZE=7]

In professional field like auditing, doctorial, lawyer etc, does a Master or PhD or high certification help for increment of salary?

To me, many high certified professions have no working experiences (especially new graduates), and yet because of certification, they are entitled to a high salary. I ever encountered a case like a high qualified body with no working experience, presents proudly to others and order senior who is not qualified to do things for them, where the assignments are delegated to the pride body.

Whereas, many people they not even have very high certification, however, they are capable, diligent and have enough working experiences. Somemore, they assist their employers to gain high returns. Nevertheless, they obtain lesser salary as compare to staffs with high qualification.

No matter how hard they work for the employers, they have lesser increment as compare to qualified staff.

Would it be fair?

Thank you.

yup.... now my friend is looking for other job d... i agree... TOO underpaid
