Funny that the economic growth is fueled by the BPO industry which is made up of mostly sosy and elite employees.

Entry level employees are getting somewhere between P20K to P25K/month. Top executives have minimum salary of P300K (excluding bonuses).

Did the entry level basic salary increase recently? A few years ago it was around 13-15k for the entry level.

For IT related jobs, it can range from 15k all up to 30k for the entry level.

Come to think of it - BPO actually pays quite well. Makes me wonder though - how come BPO has somewhat of a bad rap in the working world? When I entered the workforce a few years back, BPO was regarded as a second-rate industry.
