postdoc salary at Institute of materials and research engineering (IMRE)

[nonsense]

I've already given lots of info - for the finer details, you really need to ask the HR of the A*star institute you are thinking of joining.  They will advise you further on their bonus policy and such.

Hi! Experts,
I am planning for Postdoc postion @ A*STAR, Biopolish.
Any Idea how much the Postdoc selery and rent/other allowances.
I am from midland US and I have previous three years experience too.

hey Hau, did you recieve any replies with any exact amounts?
I know of a friend who started at Bioplois for around S$6000 a month plus 1 month's bonus and good medical insurance.
Let me know what you get offered. Interested to know. My friend was asked how much was expected and he didn't quote a specific amount but gave his then salary in NZ. He got offered something equal to that, but
with good mediacl insurance. he had abou 2 years post doc experience.

Can anyone tell me whether my friend's package is a good/bad one, given that it is Biopolis, please?

[my experience]

At my husband's institute, the bonuses aren't up for negotiation.  They're based on your performance and the economy's performance.  They can range from 1-3 months salary.  Unlike banking, you don't get a bonus just for turning up to work,

I've been told the salary for post-docs is a firm $5.5K - this was 3-4 years ago and probably has increased to $6K since. Looks like all they did was reapportion that base pay to give you a housing allowance. Suggest that you get it all as salary instead, since your bonus is based on salary.
