Hi i have jus sign on for combat engineer and on the contract it states that rank pay $1455 and Educational supplement is $390. I'm a diploma holder and haven't gon thru sispec. Is it becos of this thats why my pay is that low? It states on the contract that i'm a trainee.

So you're a chao pvt. And you are paid 1800/month for doing absolutely nothing (unless of course you call going to the cook house, sleeping in bunk, collecting the newspapers and answering phonecalls, work) in an army that doesn't go to war.Originally posted by Helpdesk:Hi i have jus sign on for combat engineer and on the contract it states that rank pay $1455 and Educational supplement is $390.

GLC means Goverment Link Companies like SMRT, PUB/Singapore Power, LTA, HDB, SIA, Hospital etc etc etc. 'In 3 yrs time' means each yr u should get your pay increment.... ....Originally posted by Helpdesk:May i know do you mean by GLC?

Another thing u want to know why the big differences about your pay scale and what is stated on the website..... .....
never believe what they say. Any where any company also the same. What u see is not what u get.
My present pay is S$2200 and I only got 3 O-level pass and a ITE NTC-2 cert. I even earn more than a 2nd SGT. -
