QUOTE(athrun300 @ Jul 18 2012, 12:04 PM) Need to make up my mind in this 2 day time...........A lot to consider especially where i will be ending up in shipyard industry in the future. Heard that it's quite hard to jump to other industry once you enter shipyard industry. It's not hard, however depend on your 'position' at shipyard.. Structural Engineer, Topside Engineer, Marine Engineer, Naval Architect, Piping Engineer, Electrical and Instrument Engineer can jump to other Oil & Gas area.. |

QUOTE(athrun300 @ Jul 18 2012, 11:25 AM) Hi, i need all sifu opinion on this. I got 2 offer which is Working at Shipyard is really challenging and very good to gain experience working with Singaporean and ppl from other countries.. however, your position is not really in demand in other oil and gas area beside production and construction, I believe Production Engineer scope of work is to provide engineering support to the Product Shops. (1) Malakoff - Engineer Developement Program Five day working day - Standard working hour salary = RM3.2k + 0.5k(allowance) (2) Jurong Shipyard - Production Engineer 6 day working day- standard working hour - may need OT sometime salary = sgd 2700 With recent sgd conversion, i wonder????? With Malakoff, mostly they will assign you to do power plant system.. good if you take care of power plant boiler or turbine.. you need to plan, what you want to be in the future and at which industry you bwill be.. recent SGD conversion to RM is 1: 2.498 (Money Changer).. as i claim direct to company, I'm using Maybank rate which is 1: 2.542 Added on July 18, 2012, 4:39 pm QUOTE(sapapa @ Jul 18 2012, 03:35 PM) Hi guys, for first-timers like me working in Singapore for the first time, this company retain 15% of my monthly salary for the first 6 months and the reason they give is to pay the income tax incase I left the company before 6 months. Never experience this.. we pay our own tax to SG..Now, 6 months has passed and I asked the HR, he explained to me that this money will return back to me next year which is a total of 1 1/2 years working OR if I quit the company. Anyone experience such cases before, like retaining some of your monthly income to pay for income tax incase you run away from the company?

QUOTE(Mackiddo @ Aug 11 2012, 02:39 PM) for the 8 hours journeys and cost travelling to and back from KL, I already would have earn enough to cover the difference. judging from your questions it's very obvious you have very few friend(s) here. oh, and most of us normally go back just to hangout with our family members. Friends at SG are my weekdays frens.. Not few... Many...  I love girls at SG (local & expat), they quite open minded..Friends at KL are my weekend frens.. When u carpool.. 3 of us share the cost of traveling, it's quite cheap actually.. 3 hours traveling, 1 hour drive each of us.. Fuel cost: RM60.. Toll cost: RM 60.. Maintenance cost RM50.. So I pau each of them RM 60 only.. Added on August 11, 2012, 4:47 pm QUOTE(Shinichi @ Aug 11 2012, 03:26 PM) What is the average increment someone can get in SG when changing job? It's depend bro.. If you are in expat level which working in MNC + oil & gas, the increment is awesome..  Added on August 11, 2012, 6:27 pm QUOTE(Shinichi @ Aug 11 2012, 03:42 PM) Thanks Mackiddo. I got an offer at 20% of my current pay and benefits are better than my current comp, guess should be good enough to jump... just hope MOM dont reject my EP will do... lol Awesome...
