I agree with you...but sadly, that's what most companies practise....they only want to "retain talent" when you throw letter....if not, you keep quiet all along, they take it that you are satisfied with your pay and pretend not to know they are short changing you....then when u ask for increment, they will give you BS reasons like cut cost blah blah blah.....but I guess corporate life is like that.....to give them the benefit of doubt, it's too difficult to track every single employee's pay in big corporations....so until you ask it, you don't get it.... Totally agree...

Hmm...ya....some ppl always say that pay is not a problem, work to gain experience and most important must have job satisfaction....I believe this is only novel for the initial stage....work long liao the novelty will soon wear off....when the pay you are getting doesn't justify the amount of hard work u put in everyday, sooner or later you will find it pointless to stay on....ppl always say job satisfaction....i think the majoe part of job satisfaction has still got to do with money....even if not by choice to leave, the pressures of society (i.e. cost of living) will force you to seek higher paying job....cos at the end of the day, you still got to put bread and butter on the table....I stil believe the greatest source of motivation to work is still money....
-
That's true also...humans can never be satisfied You can pray for him.... Got to give and take lar...you switched industry right?? Cannot compare leh...banks' bonuses and increment very miserable one sia.... Your wife very zhi jie

Ya I've got a few ex-colleagues all working in HK now...seems like HK recruitment very active these days... It's like that one lar....when u've stayed in a company for too long, soon, you'll find that you are underpaid...me too mah....my peers all getting much more than me le.....the reason I stay in my current job for so long is because I want to at least build up something more solid in my CV so that my next job, I've got more credibility... My pay used to be more than them cos I kept jumping ship....now that i've stabilised le, my pay also constant...stagnant even....i always believe in "must jump, pay then will also jump".....east house dun fight, fight west house.... But at least he's not uptight abt his money...until you du dio one si mi small expenses also uptight one then u will appreciate your current boss' extravagance....

Why do you want to leave? Cos of pay?
-
No lar just asking cos it might be helpful to know mar...in case next time i repaint my house, i might need the plant's help.... Sometimes I wonder how it is like to be so freaking rich? Able to spend as and when I like.....not having to spend days pondering whether to buy that pair of shoes that costs 100 bucks....What would life be like?!?! Noi leh i nvr watch one...I can't stand mediacorp shows....chris lee is like a perverted lao uncle in that show lusting over sweet young things' flesh....but anyway, what abt the house?!?!
-

-
Yup! We were thinking if not enough ppl to form group to Europe and they ask us to choose alternative, we would go US.... Next year I wana go NZ.... I need a break badly too....although my last trip was to HK in Feb this year U didn't go for any short break after your AD?!? you've got a point on the no image no $ kind of jobs too
-
oh ya speaking of which....your US trip confirmed already?? I just called my agency and they asked me to call back next week cos NATAS fair might got more ppl signing up.....keeping my fingers crossed....my plan B would be to go US.... No such thing as stability nowadays...ppl always get the misconception that ppl who work in banks earn a lot of money and stable job...but not true lor....inside the banks are all sai kangs one....it just looks glamorous on the outside nia...inside all rotten rotten one....
-
Uncle P, you worse than me...at least i got see 3 months before....well, not exactly...2 point something months...close to 3.....but i'm the same as you....why the he ll am I working in a bank?!?!
-
wow! your bonus can pay for your US trip! :bow: Got opening pls let me know! :bow: ya actually now it's just your workload issue...I mean, it'll be advisable to change job if env is not conducive for growth or work....your hard work will pay off when it comes to bonus time so in a way, you are still better off than most ppl...some ppl don't get recognition, not to even mention monetary rewards for their efforts...if my pay is high and each year the bonus is worth waiting for, I would still gladly persevere even though workload is a lot....cos i know in the end, the company won't pinch on the profits earned....and I know I would get the deserved monetary recognition... So just treat is as a learning and growing phase until a better paying job opportunity presents itself...
-
The pay range for confidential secretary is quite high....ya you have a good stepping stone.....see this in another light....you bao ga liao now, you know how things work, next time u change job, at least you understand the nitty gritty details that lurks behind...so it's good in a way cos you get to learn and u see a lot of things....
