Pros: For an AI startup, the initial compensation for a junior Software Engineer in Singapore was actually decent. You get basic health insurance, which is always a plus. It's a solid starting point for new grads getting into the tech industry.
Cons: After a couple of years, the pay raises are pretty minimal, especially for an experienced Software Engineer. It's tough to justify staying when other tech companies offer so much more. The benefit package isn't very competitive.
Advice to Management: You really need to reassess the compensation structure, especially for more experienced Software Engineer roles. Competitive salaries and a more robust benefits package are key to retaining talent in the aggressive Singapore tech market.
