i was like u.

1st job 2 years 2.2k
2nd job 18 month 3.2k
then jumper for 3 years (3.6K - 4K) and now im a freelancer.

have already fed up looking for another company. i have reach the limit in salary for being a designer.

I was thinking of becoming a freelancer as well but my networking might not as good as others. Plus I have financial commitment every month because I'm not from local as my family not here. Every single thing that I've spent does matter. So until now I still not dare to take freelance job. Still permanent job is more suitable for people like me.

Here is the current rate and those with more than 10 years experience seems not so promising.

Sorry to say that Artist/Designer Salary is really under pay comparing with other industries in Malaysia after I have observed all my artist friends and non-artist friends for few years.

For example, a 3D artist working for 5 years but salary is still below 4k and bonus is depend on which company. Meanwhile, IT/Accounting/Banking etc working for 3 years already can get more than 4k plus every year got bonus.

p/s: All these mentioned above are not superior positions
