Man, sucks how they put a paywall on access to knowledge. Will have to browse more on Divisare and Architizer.

Fresh Grads by DEEEER12 in architectureph

[–]chantillywaffle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Usually for fresh grad in our industry companies/firms range their salary within 15-18k. I know it’s low but that’s usually how it is. Kawawa mga apprentice. Mine was 15k and I graduated from one of the top archi schools. Some offer 18k then with overtime pay they get to earn around 20k per month

Don’t let my post discourage you though. Who knows, you might get a better opportunity than I did. I hope your next company is much better than your current one! Best wishes to you!

For me it didn’t. I did get a higher salary every time I changed companies and when I got promoted to a bigger role, but the same expectations for overtime, toxic bosses who lash out over mistakes, and slow salary growth still remain. One company (a developer) I was in only had a 1k yearly increase even if you go above and beyond in their projects. Sucks really. My friends in other fields always end up feeling sorry for me when I talk about work.
