AVP (Assistant Vice President) is it a big role

[lbcben]

yes it depends AVP at where.
anyway titles are inflated

Inreal.life, avp.is just a team lead ++ that's all,.

I always thought AVP is a very big role with high pay, because it sounds like they are the assistant to the VP.
However, I recently meet a client who's holding AVP role, but it turns out a AVP in their company is just like a team lead or small manager in their company, managing a group of 5 staff.
They have like at least a few dozen of AVP in their company.
Upon asking around, I also got a few friends who's also holding AVP role, but they also say they are just doing sai kang entry level work only, with very little pay.
The AVP title is just an inflated job title.

Upon searching on google, most of the AVP role are indeed high ranking, earning 5 digit monthly salary.
But a few sounds like inflated, where they only give like 3k to 4k salary.

So what do you all think, is AVP a overly use inflated job title?

Depends. In most banks that's quite low

But in corporates like some airlines or oil majors, they could be just a few levels below the CEO

Whenever I told pple abt the pay scale in the company I am In, everyone thinks I cannon fairy. But seems like ur side also high starting.

No la, im using ur example.

My side starting is 4+ k only. Rank structure is like that
Associate - 4+
Senior associate - 5+ to 6+
AVP - 6+ to 9
VP - 8+ to 17 ( depends on how laojiao u are)
SVP - dunno yet, none of my friends hit this rank.

But 10 yrs back when i started, my starting pay was 3k.

I think if it is in the context of bank, then AVP or even VP is very common

 

[ramlee]

[jericho75]

Avp is alien vs predator?

 

[SGRevolution]

satki AVP siol

 

[Shingoz]

depends on industry and company

in banking industry - avp / vp is similar to assistant manager / manager level

for sales related roles in most industries also have inflated titles as they are client facing

for traditional mnc VP is usually head of a division / function, and 1 or 2 levels below CEO

Agree. Titles in banks are inflated. Everywhere else in US/EU MNCs, AVP is very senior.

 

[Emperor_Hippo]

AVP can earn 5 digit one ok, mai siao siao

If can sell many many credit cards, then yes, 5-figure.

sell credit cards one oso AVP title.

Not inflated for no reasons.

Give you big title so can throw at you more responsibilities. Anything cockup throw you under the bus to protect the real bosses!

@papercar

I knew a few people. They are CEO, GM and Executive Director.

Actually, the entire company only 3-5 people only. In fact, many are of them are 1 man show! 真的！

If anyone of you see someone (especially Singaporean) with CEO, AVP, Executive Director titles, better don't look too up.

If anyone of you see someone (especially Mainlander Chinese) in Singapore with CEO, AVP, Executive Director, M.D, G.M. titles, better don't play-play! 真的不要玩玩！There are MANY Chinese MNCs in Singapore!
