Wonder if there's any better offer outhere cause pretty bored doing the same thing for the past 7 years...

my current company give rm700 car allowance + (0.58cent/km (for outstation only))

is this consider low?

i heard some post here stated 0.75 and above....i wonder do they get other car allowance as well?

@Ks6678,
You serious? That is salary per month or per year? Even if it's for per year rate, that is very high considering that you only have 2 years experience. WOW!!

hi i am design engineer with additional 1 professional certification which is CSWP. - certified solidworks professional

current salary is RM2.4k 2 years experience.

am i underpaid?

autocad is the fundamental of CAD software..but its depend on user how to make use of it.
solidwork is more advance CAD software that are using in engineering field..
but not all company able to pay for the price of solidworks...

i know how to use several CAD software which is:

solidworks
catia
autocad
iron cad
mechanical desktop (3D version of autocad)

not yet..waiting to see my increment this year...if still sad..i'll hunting new job..
+1 .........if i know like this....

last i remember, my company offered quite a good salary for a AutoCAD mechanical Drafter. higher than my salary. Kakaka!

Peanut paying engineer
lol!

well, it is true that engineers in malaysia are not paid well n not respected.
Coz a lot of dumb engineers around, some do not even know simple laws of physics.
BEM and IEM do not regulate the professional fees well enuf.
A lot of 1 man show consultants.

sad, sad.

do u know why?
cos IEM n BEM are controlled by the bosses of engineering companies...
if they push to raise the salary of engineers, it would mean that they have to fork out more to pay their engineers...

This company is ridiculous. Expect to hire a brilliant grad with RM5K? sheeh....

Absolutely.

Monetary matters could be secondary for certain people. There are other variables to be considered. Oh, the catch is, this is Malaysia. LOLZ!

@Everyone
For those that is advising Senyii, I have learnt that it is better to TALK TO YOUR MANAGER rather than resign and hope for a counter.

A phrase that a lot of senior and mid level managers have told me is "Good managers are not threatened by resignation".

Go and talk to them. If it fails, then resign. The manager would appreciate your input rather than have to scratch their head to find a replacement.

i wouldn't wanna change industry but will definitely find other job scope rather than project engineer...but actually i wanted to stay longer to learn more...so i was thinking to stay at least till next yr then oli decide if the company keep on be so calculative....

My working journey is tough...
