I know there is already a salary thread but it is mostly for people to talk about their own salaries and since there are many young workers, we do not have an indication of what senior managers are earning. Why do we want to know? Because, it helps us to plan our career ahead.
It would be nice if you specify the age, industry and position of the person. And, of course, include the salary too. Please do not guess. It must be quite reliable.
Reliable sources often can come from relatives/siblings/friends/colleagues or even HR department in any company. We need more transparency.
If possible, please do not include those CEOs of public companies with pay package running into millions per annum.
Strictly salaries only. No business income.
Here we go.
Age: 53 Industry: IT Position: Sales Director Income: RM20k

Just because of a few examples above , you make such conclusion meh....majority of the work force are not high salary earners....as megahertz said, take a look at the ratio....

Shell's old salary structure was the following
Manager (JG4): 13-15.5k per month Operations Manager (JG3): 15.5-18k per month Senior Managers (JG2): 22.5-28k per month
This has changed over the years though.

This has changed over the years though. Very similar to my company's current Malaysia pay scale. The ranges are nearly spot on. Just titles are slightly different. JG4 is more or less Senior Exec/Specialist/Analyst/Account Manager. JG3 is Manager. JG2 is Senior Manager. This post has been edited by seantang: Oct 14 2011, 03:23 PM

anyone can share about the salary structure for BAT(GSD), BP Service center, Schlumberger SIS, Exxon ? The American petrochemical companies have fairly similar structures. As long as you're part of the core mother company... ie. employed by the holding company or a 100% owned subsidiary that's directly managed by global mgt... ie. not a empowered local organisation with lots of local management (ie. have a local CEO, local CFO, local board of directors whose accountability to global is only profit), not a service center/call center/some sort of XXX Services Sdn Bhd etc.

Unless the US MNC company has localized the management, the salary structure will basically the same as those china man company or malay enterprises ? you are which company ?

For everyone that earns 7K or above there are another 100 that earns less than 1K a month. Think about that. Not everyone in our country is privileged enough to have gone through colleges or Unis. These pay are those graduated and for every graduate, how many are dropouts, how many are SPM holders. The ratio could be 1 : 50 or even more. Check our those who works as sales assistants in Jusco, their pay is only RM750 a month. Don't believe, check it out yourself. Econsave and Giant. The Cs tend to go for promoter jobs and their average take home pay is 1.2K to 1.5K. Factory workers, those in the low rung civil services. Even average hawkers earns an average of 2K monthly for a husband and wife team. After 37 comments and you made a sweeping conclusion.

Again, what's the purpose of this topic again?!....
So if we know which industry and which position, so what?!
If you''re already working, you're stuck in your same industry. If you're in that industry, you would obviously know what the seniors are earning. If you have yet to know what the seniors are roughly earning, that proves you're not in the industry long enough and are just starting.
If that's the case, then stop day dreaming about how much one is going to earn in the future. Instead pick up your own pace and start work hard/smart.
Seriously I do not see the need of this topic. Until one can convince me otherwise, this topic is closed. The pinned topic on salary doesn't restrict to your comments on your own-self salary.
