True.... my neighbour he get RM 3,200 in Intel after confirm. Thats 2 years back, now Intel is laying off EXPENSIVE worker especially the seniors.

r u freaking serious?

no hard feelings but for your own good, jz get any other job already.... Im a project engineer but ....aih dun wanna hurt u further - jz get ur resume prepared n send 2 any company asking for engineer, Good luck mate!

no joke man.... well i going wait till 1 1/2 months then going to demand for 2k+ if not sure i chao lou lor.... how to survive with 1.65k?????

aiyah, dun need to wait la, terus send by today

1.65k is basic pay or wat?

my basic pay after confirm is onli rm1.8k nia.... lucky got hp allownce rm200. so it comes to 2k.. but after minus all those epf etc.. is rm1.8k

i work as civil consultant eng.

The starting pay for my first job was 1.8k. After EPF, it became like 1.65k, just like you. I accidentally saw the appointment letter of a guy employed two years ago from that time, the initial pay was also 1.8k before EPF deduction.

I believe all employers think that 1.8k is a good number which they can use for many many years, totally ignoring the presence of inflation.

btw i dont even have allowance... only can claim for petrol if i got go sites lar.... i am in structure cabling system company

stay put in ya cocoon n digest some experience before u learn how to fly peterchai ... in ur destiny ur a flying karate man... once u black belt liow dont forget me

i am worried before i become karate man.... i already mati liao.... how to survive with this peanuts pay... esp in kl?????

heheheh ... u dun claim more?? *shhhhh* one of my collegue works as site coordinator always claim more than he use

how to claim more ler.... all in bills mar.... printed out???? black and white.....

well... construction line starting pays poorly... especially consultancy.. mostly after 3yrs only reach 3k. also need to lobby for your pay.. or job hopping to secure higher pay.

Job hopping after u gain experience from you company is definitely great to improve your base salary.
Always put in to consideration the room for improvement in your current department.

Back to the topic, getting 1.8k for a fresh graduate is quite average considering many good advantage for you. Like getting MNC exposure and additional experience to show off in your next interview.
FYI, MNC company pay higher salary to the agent coz all the medical fees are covered by the agent. Thus, the agent usually leeched 20-25% of your paid salary.
Good luck

i dunno much bout civil but a engineer still an engineer wat, human still need 2 eat, shit n pay the high petrol price n maintain our daily transport

dude, I feel u.....go throw ur letter at ur boss tomorrow n buy newsppr - start a new job n dun let anyone abuse u like this man........im not being nice 2 u; seriously, if everyone like u then we engineers cant demand anymore, coz u spoiling the market

PEACE

hahahahhahaha i also wish to do that lar.... but too much commitment at the moment..... if no incomei am going to die..... u really think i am happy with the pay ar... futhermore they r going to send me to sudan for work... that;s y on my thread i need to know what's the oversea allowance... need to know the market value... if not meet then i throw letter

dude.. sudan is just after war... in high risk area... make pretty darn sure your work is high! find job now... while the construction market not that well, there's still bound to be job somewhere

those who printed is human, right? heheheh...


anyway, go sudan how long? its good for ur future....and definetly its higher salary pllus higher rsk

roughly 4-5 months lor....

hey don't discuss out of topic pls
I really need those advice and recommendation from those experienced forumer
anyway what is a green badge??
ok let say if I accept the jobs, the probability for me to convert into the permanent will be higher? provided I work and perform nicely
And one thing I wanted to clarify is that I don't YET have my degree result since I just came back here last week. Would there be any problem for that?

HELP HELP HELP
thanks for those giving me advice

Green badge == contract worker attached to external vendor/supplier (i.e. Manpower, Kelly etc). Intel pays the contractor, the contractor in turn pays you. None of the usual intel emp benefits i.e. stock options, study loans etc.

You accept -> got chance to be permanent.
You don't accept -> no chance at all unless you join as permanent directly.

If you perform there is a chance to be converted to permanent but depends on other factors (headcount, HR directive, luck, boss like you etc).
