Hi everyone,

Curious lang and looking for inspiration from fellow civil engineers dito sa PH.

Kamusta yung salary progression niyo from starting hanggang ngayon? If okay lang i-share, pwede malaman:

• Starting salary niyo
• Current salary (or range lang kung mas comfortable)
• Years of experience
• Anong field/work niyo (construction, design, project management, QA/QC, estimating, etc.)

Gusto ko lang din magkaroon ng idea sa possible career growth sa field natin.

Salamat sa mga magshi-share 🙏

Estimator working on steel & concrete. Anyone else seeing bids slow down lately?

Feels like since the US–Iran situation escalated, clients are hesitating more — fewer RFQs, longer decisions, some projects just on hold. Material prices (steel, fuel) are also getting unpredictable.

From what I’m seeing:

• Costs going up, but demand feels weaker
• Owners delaying instead of canceling
• More competition on fewer jobs

Anyone else experiencing this? Or still getting steady volume?
