Hello frens,

I am being offered a job with maxis?

Operations Support Engineer. 2 years renewable contract.

What is want to know is....

will there be any chances they will make permenant?

what are the benifits during 2 years?

will i see myself growing ?


please advise me on the benifit, working enviroments and etc

I think should be good.

Yeah it should be good and congratulation
btw if u already attach with current company for >5 years that not good but if u just joined a current company < a year, feel boring doing the same shit everyday, then go with Maxis

It should be good.

thank you frens for your replies.

but can anyone help me with regarding the benifits in maxis as contract employee?

I'm not sure about the benefits from Maxis. But as I mentioned a few times in here, there's nothing to lose even it is 2 years contract only. Work hard and hopefully, you'll be rewarded with a permanent position. Even if they decided not to extend your contract, the experience you have in your pocket is sufficient for you to land another job easily. Good luck and enjoy your new job

What do you think?

Shall i go for telocomunication industry or construction ?

I got two offer and dunno what to choose?

Plz help me frens

What are you majoring in? It depends on your interest too.

Ok, to be brutally honest, my friend who was also offered a 2 year contract with Maxis based in Subang Hi-Tech complained a lot about the job and the benefits.

Fact:
As a contract employee, your basic will be higher but your benefits will not be as good as permanent Maxis employees.

Fact:
As an operations support engineer, be prepared to work on weekends and on night shifts.

and fact = subang hi tech village is a shitty place to work in

I think foodwise you are closer to nicer food as compared to Cyberjaya....

+another fact Maxis based in Subang Hi-Tech has very few young ladies (So u can forget about lenglui)..lol

i thought Maxis' pay scale is quite low right? It's like a fresh grad can't get more than RM1600 (contract)

Not really, my friend who was a fresh grad had a pay of RM2800 (2 year contract).

well, the chances of getting a permanent contract are somewhere near zero. Its the maxis policy now. Once the two years are up, they *might* renew the contract, but it will be for another 2 years, or 6 months, depending how long they need you or how long before they can replace you with a new person who will accept a lower salary.

contract wise, your salary will be generally higher in exchange for less benefits and longer working hours. It would be a good experience if you're a fresh grad looking to get a foothold in the job market as maxis experience will look good on your resume.

Yeah, to be honest, a lot of companies are moving into that policy and hire based on contract. Easy to trim staff that they don't want and cheaper solution.

I think it is a good offer
worth to try it~

btw, wat's ur major in?

My major is electronic and electrical engineering.

Yeah, Maxis offer me 2800 too.

I have this constriction company offering 2500 with alots of benifit and career growth. and no lenglui in the factory



I really appericiate all your feedbacks.


Currently i am working in MNC in Seremban for past two years and i dun see career growth at all


Help me !!!!!!!!!!!!!

so wat r u hanging to rite now? in EE cell?
i think that Maxis offer worth to take it, coz it will make u a nice profile of urself..
juz my 2 cents

operation support engineer, in telecommunications... hmmm. here is a possible career path.

2 yrs contract with Maxis. Learn all the basics of operations support in BSS (radio) or NSS (core network), become confident with the equipments, try to aim for 3G support. Make contacts with the vendors (Nokia, Ericsson, Alcatel, ...)

End of the 2 yrs.

Apply for a job at other operators, or better, the telco vendors.

After 2 or 3 more years, once you feel solid enough, become a telecom consultant or a freelance, worldwide. Between 10k to 20k / month + trips all over the world

Have fun...

Construction can be good too, but i have no experience with that.

well, if you perform beyond expectation, then most probably they will convert you to be a permanent staff, else it either sack or renew.
on whether you will see yourself growing, it would be up to yourself.
Benefits for contract staff would be of coz lesser or not as good as a permanent staff.

Telecommunications industry is one of the most rapidly growing industries in Malaysia at the moment. I'm working in one of the telcos at the moment and I see the prospect of it growing/improving in Malaysia among other telcos.

not in my office anymore. It's a very good place to work now. spacious and comfortable.

i totally agree on this. gain experience and after 2 yrs in Maxis, you can always choose to shift to other telcos such as DiGi or Celcom.

wat's the salary,job scope,working hours,working days and etc? mind 2 tell?

Shift to other telcos from Maxis means 24hour resignation. Usually it comes with most companies when you are moving to a competitor.

so Sakuragi, what's your decision ?

Thank You to all of u all.

Pix ur comment makes me to joint telco,

Thank to kelvin too, and not forgetting the rest.

What i am doing now? I am aiming for another company in constrcution industry?

Maxis job got shift lar, they operate 9am to 12 midnite. so got two shift.


I am aiming the constcution industry, coz i know i can grow there.

I hope i get the offer from the construction company.

I really hope i dun do any mistake.

Any comments plz?

Goodluck dude, is hard to make decision at time. going into which industry is all depends on urself..

take it for the experience and knowledge. They are not 'kedekut' when providing training to the staff. Some of my friends who were previously contract staff have been upgraded to permanent

I think you will jump also after 2 years. So the contract is just a win win situation for both parties.

That's a good place to start with, if you're a fresh grad.

Don't think have to think twice.
