i guess ntg wud hv chged aso la.. its media/broadcast company, gonna b long working hours with jz low pay or maybjz mid-range pay.. ntg higher tat u can expect aso on the pay..

I am in the same boat, have been waiting for a month now, they are saying its gone for salary approval and i am an expat

Update:
Apparently this particular agency has been ghosted by Astro.
They don't want to pay their fees or something after the change of management so all candidates who had gotten verbal offers previously were dropped. And they can't bypass them and hire them directly because otherwise they would still owe fees to the agency for the introduction.

I noticed they use a workday platform now so they will focus on hiring directly rather than using agents. oh well, that was really unfortunate.

Good luck to everybody who got in via direct recruitment !

What is SAVP in astro equivalent to? do they get people reporting to them and what are the benefits they get?

It's a mid-management position.
You basically report to your division's equivalent of C-suite staff.
you usually get people reporting to your role in companies as big as astro.

i don't think any specific benefits. just mid-management level of salary and "prestige" of the role being 1 step below C-suite. That's all.

Why you ask ?

Thanks for the reply, just wanted to know and also do they get a company car and individual cabins in office?

No idea

I think he means a personal cabinet where he can leave his belongings in the office grounds.

I meant a room in office

SAVP reports to VP

benefit wise Astro do provides quite lucrative allowance for SAVP and above, but still no room and no company car

but yeah with the VSS coming, no need to think about it liao

i read in news paper last week.

astro start give vss.

so not logic if astro open new hiring.

what are the implications exactly?

astro can hire contractors

well, 1 boss say VSS, another boss say business as usual until further news that this impact us, middle management/foot soldier continue to to post ads to hire ppl

Kick those overpaid and replaced with lower paid but similar skill employees. Now with higher level of competition, it makes sense to mark the remuneration to market. Organization like banks do it all the time.

at the same time MSS is offered to VPs, they don't get to choose at all

Did you manage to get a job in Astro?

Seriously? I thought only VSS as per the news? Is this for VPs and above? Means that SVP also kena

no i didnt.
