What are you talking?
The employer sets the salary...and not many local comps i know in o&g pays anything above 3k to their freshies.MNC's also very few. I started my first job in klang valley for 1.4k a month. If no allowance that month i makan timun.
From most people i hear in Malaysia high salary does not equate to higher responsibility and challenge it equates to who you know and how pandai u taichi. I make more money now overseas with so much less resposibility than i did locally in Malaysia with more responsibility. Why you think everyone in Malaysia want to jump?
hmm, in that case, o&g does pay well for skilled one with good experiences, but not fresh grad then..
considering banking grad trainee pay 2.8k+- as well, I doubt o&g will be less than that, unless those chinaman company..
pay wise, what I stated there is true, up to people to take it or not
someone with high salary but lower responsibility is subject to skills and experiences then, such as those principal engineer..good for you
