i heard petronas paying much better but im still not so sure if the information provided by u is accurate. no offence but actually im also interested to know where u got your information from.
looking at your experience 14 years, and u shud be almost an E3 already (equivalent to manager as what is stated by astroguy), thus with your experience and position, you should be getting almost 20k.
With the benefits available and same value of salary, dont u feel regret for leaving maju jaya?
which discipline are you in? i think u must be quite good to be a lead at 35+ I guess your age.
share with me your thoughts.
nice sharing.
hi guys,
i am sharing my 14 yrs experience in oil & gas industry in Malaysia
current estimated market rates as follows:-
Petronas/ Oil Company
fresh grade: starting salary at about RM4,300 per month
medical - unlimited
housing loan
car loan
yearly company bonus: 2 to 5 months salary per year (non fixed)
performance bonus: between 4-6 months salary - of coz depends on performance la
potential overseas assignment - up to USD500 per day allowance - depends on location i.e.. Turkmenistan or Iraq etc.
work culture: - more efficient than government - but still far behind compared to super major oil co i.e. shell/exxon/bp
estimated 2011 salary range:
senior executive - 5 to 10 yrs exp- up to Rm10k per month
manager - 10 - 15 years exp- up to Rm 20k per month
senior manager - 15 to 20 years exp- up to Rm30k per month
general manager - 20- 25 years exp- up to Rm40k per month
Petronas salary used to very low, but now very competitive compared so super major oil co.
but is it better (overall) condition, because it is still a GLC, unlike most international co, you can almost never get retrenched or sacked even if you are super low performance in petronas
then you can bragged yourself as being the wealthiest & only malaysia company in 500 fortune list.
but too bad when they are overseas, their Local reputation could not help them to perform well & they are generally looked down by almost all international oil companies and also major international contractors.
how do i know all this? because i used to work for petronas for 10 years, and now i am working with an international oil & gas consultant with several overseas assignment in middle east & europe.
