Anyone here who’s worked in either of these offices in Singapore? My girlfriend is moving to Singapore and I’m exploring roles. How’s the salary, work, culture etc.?
Goog SG - super modern and new office, culture good, high growth. good variety in biz side opportunity, less tech. Salary 10-20pp less than MTV big drop in gsu but v good for APAC. Recommend if you love Asia growth and biz challenges and are immune to humidity
I seriously considered moving to Singapore so talked to a few peeps who’s done it - if you are coming from the UK/US, your take home is higher bc tax is better in SG. Be sure to get the expat package if you can.
Why didn't you do it
Thanks a bunch! Didn’t know equity is lower in non US markets. But I guess you pay higher taxes in the US so it might (almost) even out.
Anything slightly luxurious in Singapore is overpriced. Think cars, restaurants...
Just keep in mind, if you are a US citizen you pay capital gains tax globally, even though SG has no capital gains tax
Take home $$$ is one of the positives of SG, but less engineering compared to the US. Like mentioned above 10-20% dip in TC is inevitable.
SWE opening in our Singapore office. Ping me for details.
