I'm currently torn between staying in my current job and leaving. I've been with this shipping company for four years now. I started in the accounts department and was later transferred to sales, but despite the move, there’s been no real progression in terms of salary.

I used to think salary talk in SG was taboo, but times are changing. I realize more and more people are becoming comfortable sharing their salaries online and with peers. It’s amazing to see that we’re becoming more aware that keeping quiet only benefits companies, not us. Transparency empowers everyone! Salary talk isn’t scary, it’s actually motivating. The more we educate people about salary transparency, the better we become at advocating for pay equality for all. Kudos, Singaporeans! ✅

I have this habit of asking people about their salary. Not to compare or anything, but to understand if we’re really being paid what we’re worth. Most of the time, people shy away or just say “same like you lah.” But today was different. A new colleague shared openly, and it turned into a really honest conversation. I realized we’re both fairly valued, and that gave me some peace of mind. 😊 It showed me that when we start normalizing salary talks, it becomes less awkward and more empowering.

If a company makes a verbal/written promise abt a salary adjustment after a certain period but nvr follows through, is it still reasonable to bring it up yrs later? On one hand, it feels like the opportunity might have passed, but on the other, the agreement was never honored despite consistent performance & taking on more work. Would raising it now risk damaging ur position/reputation, or is it better to address it directly regardless of the time that’s passed? How you handle this situation?

I was complaining about how little salary I got offered as a poly fresh grad @ $2.2k and someone said, then just go and become a bus driver lah! Can earn $3k what. I felt instantly annoyed. 😑Nothing against d job but who would've studied up to diploma & go for bus captain as their 1st job? Obviously, i'm looking to climb up the career ladder and eventually earn more in the future?? People say I'm choosy but I only wanted to start off with good salary. Is it too much that I asked for $3.5k?

HR played me so I played them back! Asked for $5.5k salary, matching the range $4-6k on their job ads. Successfully scored the interview & they're willing to pay my price BUT after seeing my payslip, they lowball me with $4.8k max. I pretended to be REALLY interested, so they excitedly sent over the offer letter thinking I'm down for their s*itty salary then proceeded to decline after 2 weeks saying the amount is too low for my level. Got ghosted afterwards but it's worth it 😎
