@sunofabeach
then I'll cut you a break. Since you do not have working experience yet.

Fresh grads pay can start at 1.6 - 4.5k.

RM1.6k jobs are mostly found out of Selangor/ KL although there are still companies that pay that amount in selangor / kl. Generally degree jobs should pay between 2.2k - 2.8k assuming you are an average performer.

Jobs that pay above 2.8k usually are management trainee programs / jobs that require you to be offshore / or if you are the best and manage to management consultancy firms like McKinsey (USD3k starting pay in malaysia), Boston Consulting, etc.

IT role standard pay (Not designing job) RM2.2k - RM4k
Finance pay is pretty standard. RM2.3k - RM3.3k
Engineering (Not Oil and Gas) RM2.2k - 2.8k
Engineering (Oil and Gas) RM3k - RM4k

All the above is based on degree qualifications. Anybody, please feel free to correct me.

Correction

Engineering (O&G) RM3k - RM7k

you really dont know what you are talking about...
if he says he earns that much... accept it...
don say he's a dupe...

as long as you keep thinking ppl this young cant carry that kind of earning power...
you will never get there as well...

open your eyes... and be more transparent with earnings with your peers...
sometimes when you think you are at the top, you might just be right below the surface and you don even know it...

Yes, it's depend which industry you in. But in Accounting & Finance... I don't think it is easy to reach 10k. Unless you working oversea, or investment/commercial banking.

But in sales & engineer/IT sector, you may reach that if you reach the sales target or have special skills.

well being a finance manager doesnt mean that you are in accounting and finance
so give him the benefit of doubt

Please tell me your size of company, name. I bet his/her age above 40.

What I like to highlight is Accounting & Finance take years to gain experience to reach higher level & salary. Unless you in investment & banking, probably you can reach in young age with special talent. Who the hack will paid you so much while your experience & contribution so little. Cost-Benefit
(if yes, please refer me, will be much appreciated)

BTW with 10k plus salary, your tax will be sky high.

My colleague was a Finance Manager, but when he join, he is same position as me, Team Lead. So those are just title, most important is your paid.

I would rather be a exec, but getting a manger paid, instead of being a manger getting a exec paid. Easy job but high paid.. although just a dream.. tongue.gif  tongue.gif

tax is high but you learn to make more...
thats it...
you dont want tax? earn 3k a month for the rest of your life then....

the "manager" term is often miss used
especially in sales & marketing....

some accounts manager are actually ppl who handle KEY accounts in a company...
so it should be KEY ACCOUNTS MANAGER....
but ppl jus omit key...

some ppl in marketing line are called Territory Manager...
but aint really a manager...

so share your facts...
learn from others...
know your market...
and strive for it...
no need to say "my friend says otherwise"...
open your eyes

Yea i am 26 this year .. Doing sales, averaging bout 8-10k a month. Nowadays 10k is not hard to do. Its just whether you want to do it. I got a few frens making 10-15k a month doing sales .

Of course if ur the type of ppl who like to sit in office 9-5 kinda job, dont expect high salary when your young. Maybe if once you reach 35+ you will earn 5 figures and all. But if you want to earn 5 figure salary below 30years old, sales is the way. And there are so many type of sales, u can go and choose which one suits you.
