Hi all,
Anyone working in this company before? as i know, it's a china company which located in klcc area, they are expanding recently, may i know how's the working environment there, how the paid and any comments about this company? Please share your informations, thanks!

I want to know more about this company; fresh graduate salary, benefits they offer , working environment and etc.

Thank you.

Huawei is a big IT solution provider company dealing with contract projects like government sector and private sector like IBM, Getronics, Panasonics.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huawei

Check on this link. Their company usually is looking for experience worker instead of fresh graduate.

They are not expanding recently, they have been expanding since 2000. I have a friend working there, he join as an engineer, few years back he is promoted to management incharge of order people to do this and that, travel every month, good pay, nice working environment, travel to australia....around the world.

Wow..not bad the benefits, i said it's expanding cause a big recruit advertisement shown on last saturday star jobs area..anyway, thanks for the info mner!

my fren join in
got a nice basic pay ...
and high daily allowance in USD
so he is located in oversea ... so his allowance total up monthly will be more then his basic salary

Indeed, Huawei is a global player, they have tender project around the world. So you might be travel alot when you joined them. It is depending which team you are in and did Huawei won the bid of the project.

What's their official URL?

Not a problem at all. If you do join Huawei in future, let me know, I introduce my friend to you.

http://www.huawei.com/

Any position for fresh graduates? Thank you ...

So 'far' there are not any bad comments about this company(that's a gppd things), just the problem whether i managed to get into it..

Sure will let u know, thanks ya.

I'm not sure about that, my friend join Huawei after he completed his master in engineering and he was a fresh grad when he joined Huawei.

Please take note on this, if you want to move up the career path in huawei, you need to be loyal to the company, means work there for more than 2 years.

I can't ask my friend to recommend people I don't know to put their resume on top of other people. I can introduce my friend to you once you join huawei.

Sorry. Can't do any favour for putting resume since doesn't know anything about people asking for favour or anyone here.

Huawei not in telco industry?

My cousin work for this company and station in Hong Kong and travel to Shenzen most of the time. The pay is quite good, i think it is at least RM6k / month

Travelling is frequent if you want to work in Huawei Malaysia since the KL office is their Asia Pacific HQ. Frequent travelling = 1-2 months.

Good I like travel.....and their will pay you USD 40 per day....hehe....Nice??

Well this company make those networking devices like CISCO. But it's cheaper because Huawei is a China or Taiwanese company.

I did apply for it thru jobstreet but i think they would look for experienced engineers in the field. It's a big company anyway.

What countries do you need to travel?

"Frequent travelling = 1-2 months" means that travel once in 1-2 month? that's ok for me.., but as i know, they travel normally to those asian country such as india, china, thailand..correct if i'm wrong.

It depends on your position. Some require heavier travelling compared to others. By this I mean, some spend their time in overseas more than the time in Msia (in a yr).

p4n6 is right If you are someone who loves travelling, you can try Huawei.

hi guys, great to tell u all that i goin to work in Huawei-3com in this coming monday !

ther is 2 division for huawei, Huawei Technologies and Huawei-3Com. Huawei Technologies is located @ KLCC and Huawei-3Com is located @ menara CITIBANK. both of them dealing wif networkin devices like CISCO.....

Congratulations...!

got some questions hope u can answer them (me fresh grad = n00b )
When did you go for the interview? How long does it take from the time of the interview to securing the job?

I think it is heavy travelling for 1-2 months (stay 1-2 months in a country). Frequency probably like above 5 times a year.

You can always ask your interviewer to where you might go and the coverage of the travelling area ... different companies have it differently.

From the Huawei site, you can see that Huawei Tech deals with more than just data communication equipment and devices. It basically covers all telecommunication equipment from fixed, mobile to data networks. So, Huawei is comparable to SIEMENS, ERICSSON, LUCENT, & MOTOROLA.

Err .. I didn't say that ... I'm just trying to say working and travelling for pleasure are two different things.

Are you a "technical trainer" there p4n6?

anyone knows about the internal transfer at huawei? is this common in hua wei culture? any particular criteria?

I didn't even say I'm working there ... what gives you the idea that I'm a technical trainer in Huawei?

I'm lost here, who is going to work in Huawei? Congradulations.

Huawei's a big company,the biggest in China I guess.

They deal with mobile networks,data com,optical networks,NGN,home networking products,etc..basically everything that you can think of for communcations.

Malaysia is the HQ for AP region and south asia, I guess now it covers Aussie and NZ too and some islands towards the east of aussie.

Heavy travelling is required if u r hired under Asia Pac office.Probably 1-2 months for each trip, come back for about 3-6 days and go again, but also depends on ur job scope

hi.. , congratulation to you..how is the new job so far? what exactly is your job

William_Yeo is the one going to work for Huawei-3Com ...
You never know whether it's Congratulation or Condolence ...

Hahaha, don't say bad things to him. Huawei is a good company

Does huawei recruit IT people ?

of course they do.

I seriously doubt that. I believe a balanced ratio between IT and telecommunication is more accurate.

Huawei is a multi national corporation in telecommunication industry.

It should hire people from all levels, such as technical, marketing, account, finance, admin, logistic, legal, etc etc.

Huawei is not an IT company. Network Engineer is categorized under telcom as well.

What the heck with CCNA/CCNP/CCIE? Cisco and Huawei are rivals in datacom field ^^;;

Company that involves in implementation of networks with Cisco equipment will take people with CCNA/CCNP/CCIE. However, such cert will be added advantage in some sense.

Will keep an open mind

It is a good company, my friend has been working there for more than 3 years.

Well, there are bad things in the company, you have to compare the value between what you get and the bad things in the company. Which is greater, that will over come your hateness towards the company, hahahaha.

What kind of bad things?

I got bad reviews from friends. Which department your friend's in?

Ehhh....I know his department incharge of the PABX stuff....not sure specilise in PABX....he is not a engineer anymore, he instruct people and he travels often. Hahahaha, I think he told me, but I forgot.

Do they hire Diploma holder? Always notice get Degreee and above.

no diploma holder unless it is experience

coz... I thought you were talking from experience ...

Hi all, just browsing through the net and saw this post. Very interesting.

Can we have someone from Huawei to explain on the fringe & benefits? Such as salary, annual leave, allowances, etc?

Thanks. I'm interested in this company as well.

INterested in joining is it? which position?

Good for you.....big salary.....What position r u in ???

Fresh grad can join ?

I joined as a fresh grad 1 yr ago.

tumpang thread... anyone know how is the starting salary for a fresh grad in Huawei?

above 2k...within the industry's salary range

Serious dude, huawei isn't really that cheap.
Go check it out.

ZTE is bigger, I suppose.

I was told that Huawei is not yet listed on the stock exchange. Anyone working inside Huawei can confirm this. Is there any plan to list on any stock exchange (China/US)?

Thanks

Also can anyone worked in Huawei can share the benefits there? Like overseas' allowance, medical benefits, free handphones, bonus, annual leave etc?

It is not yet listed on Stock Exchange.

very very attractive allowance and you wouldn't want to miss that.

so can u recommend me the job in huawei?

How attractive are they? Just want to know before I jump on the boat.
Thanks

Nobody can give you an exact figure.
It depends on your performance after all.

Jumping onboard? Looking forward to see you around.

Be prepared to travel a lot.

How much travelling is there in Huawei? Let say, one month how many days does you guys travel overseas? Is the US40 daily allowance covers supposed to cover everything, from laundry, food, taxi etc?

Thanks

that's because ZTE is listed in China and HW is not.

Travelling depends on ur job scope. Some not so heavy, but some are very heavy.

Like my case, I was only in office for ONE day since Jan 1st, and that was to collect my air ticket.

The allowance doenst cover ur food and laundry.Others....depends on whether your boss wanna approve ur claims or not.

which dept are u in, schizo?

tech support

oo no wonder...

They r 1 of my company competitor. Anyway, i think it depends on which department u're working in. For engineer in my company oso well paid la. A ex colleague of mine working there(dunno if still now) as admin staff good pay but work like hell....another fren of mine went for an interview for a recep post was told by the staff there workload like mountain high....n the boss sucks....

How bad of those managers?

I'm not saying that 'work like hell' environment exists there but then I look at it a different way. High workload = more learning oppurtunities.

Positive thinker u r. I think it differently, true to say that more workload more to learn but there is an extend. I believe in efficiency, weight ur pay with ur job. Do u got paid what u worth? or u're being paid 1 person wages doing 2 ppl's job?

From what I hear, the pay is comparatively higher than the industry salary range and to rate the amount of workload is extremely subjective to each individual. And how are you to rate your pay with your job when everything's so subjective once again. As long as you are not slapped with a ridiculously low paid salary that makes your competitors despise you, calling you cheap labour etc. Besides, there are so many external factors that come into play, eg. career advancement, learning opportunity, travelling opportunity, exposure etc.

If you are handling a product, and something goes wrong, you need to fix it = work late nights

If you are in a project team and is closing in on your submission dateline = no sleep at all

So, if you are someone who's dedicated enough to contribute, not only to the company but also to yourself, then you shouldn't be complaining. At the same time, you have to know how to balance your work and life. Work the smart way.

Expecting a 9-6 working hours nowadays will only disappoint you. If you cant handle the heat there, then I guess somewhere else would be better off.

William_Yeo and schizophreak are in Huawei (or Huawei-3COM)....who else ???

I goto jalan x 2 at Huawei-3COM few weeks ago and met some of the guys from China.....but don't see many leng-lui there...in fact just saw 2 ladies....1 receptionist and 1 product manager (look like 夏禕 - 綜藝大哥大)......and the Technical Director is a funny guy (don't play play..CCIE)....

What makes u think that u couldn't weight ur pay with ur workload? Say, u being paid 2.5k for a admin post but working from 9-10, justify it then? of course with OT will be the best but bear in mind there r some company out there not paying OT even if it's a MNC.

Like i said, if u're working far too much overtime then maybe u should think r u being paid what u're worth or 1 wages doing 2 ppl work? Some of my company engineer might need to work OT from morning till morning, no OT paid. However their montly wages is around 6-9k. So they might think it's worth it since it's not OT frequently. But what if they r being paid only 4-5k? N some employer see OT as inefficiency......

Of course other than $, achievement is as important as well, personally i believe $ n achievement can be weight by what u have given. If u're working 12 hours a day but in the end ur achievement is no better than those work 8 hours a day then does it still worth it? It is the workload problem or ur ownself problem?Or maybe if u got an assistance could it be u can reduce ur hours n increase ur productivity?

N yes, HuaWei staff r highly paid.

You should ask, "in one year, how many weeks I will be in Malaysia".

Isn't that suspicious? Maybe they expect you take a lot of shit out of the pay ...

Wah! That means the oversea allowance will be fat loh? USD40 x 30 days = USD1,200 x 3.8 = RM4,560

PLUS basic pay, wow, close to RM10k a month? (Assuming RM5k basic pay)

sometimes u ask...how many days a year..

mt friend is working in this company located at klcc

i wish i get a chance to work in there one day


very potential and fast growth company

Other than good salary, good reputation company, how about the communication among colleagues? Based what I heard from my friend, they used to speak mandarin, is it true?

well, lotsa mandarin speaking people around.
what else can you expect from china company?

any job a huawai for unix/linux system admin??

ya loh, i wish to apply too... so any recommendation for me n lipkhin?

Hi schizophreak,

what is the name and email address of the human resource manager at Hua Wei, i preparing a cover letter and resume to send to him. :-)

I also want to apply too. Mind to share with us the contact ...

Thank you.

they dont give 5k as basic if you have only 2-3 years experience. they may give 2-4k

now 1 usd is around 3.5 ringgit. the USD40 does not include food and laundry, so if you are going outstation one month 40*3.5*30=4200 ringgit , and after food, you may end up with a total of around 2500 depending on individual.

then your total gross salary is between 4500 to 6500. bear in mind, you are sacrificing you time here in malaysia and going to countries that are usually belongs to third world categories, meaning not hygene and healthy. you have to bear the risk

there is no easy money. else no one will be leaving huawei. but the truth of the matter is labor turnover in huawei is still very high

exactly
