However, over the years, he received only modest raises despite his commitment and hard work, reaching S$5,000 only after his recent promotion. Feeling conflicted about the situation, he asked the community, “How will I ever catch up in this rat race? Do I really have to job hop?” he asked. “I love my job, work culture, work-life balance & team. The only thing is the pay,” he added.In the comments section, many Singaporean Redditors urged him to focus on his own career progression rather than dwelling on the salaries of fresh graduates. One Redditor stated, “Comparison is the thief of joy.

Another commenter noted, “You are already at median income within 3 years of graduating; learn to be satisfied or else you’ll spend the next 40 years comparing and being unhappy.”A third Redditor chimed in, “Lol don’t need to compare leh. My starting pay as a degree holder was 2.2 only leh back in 2015. You started at 4 very good liao.”
