Touching sangat you bro. Rileks. Meh sini aku belanja kopi. Cheers.

Nope, pay low issue. Learning wise, what to learn where an unit are run by 5-10 fellows?

Okay this point aku dah tak boleh lawan dah ahahahahahahaha

All the ops group knows this, as they are spoiling Malaysian in Middle East market.

In the middle?

Nope, I'm from security.

supersound I think you really ada vengeance towards Petronas bro. Sorry for my wild accusation. Aku rasa tak semua ada rotten apples in Petronas. There are so many great talents were born from Petronas, for example like Tan Sri Hassan Merican and Rafizi Ramli. Thats is why headhunters from Middle East are really look forward to employ Malaysian from Petronas background working experience.

Oklah aku sebenarnya tak nak gaduh2, gua chill jer. Peace.

And three of us here sudah derailed from this thread objective. This thread discussing about BASF-Petronas Chemicals Sdn Bhd - a 60% 40% JV between BASF and Petronas Chemicals Group (PCG) whereby BPC is the operator of plant facilities on behalf of JV partner.

Bump.

I believe it is not all about money. The kind of experience one gets for being an executive (or engineer hehe) or a technician is DIFFERENT.

Yadda yadda they say being a technician or operator gives one the valuable hands-on feel, but what's stopping one executive from getting their hands dirty yet at the same time juggling the troubleshooting/ thinking / managing vendors and clients etc. It boils down to how one finds the balance.

One thing for sure, career progression is different for a technician and an executive (don't be tempted with the shift allowance etc.. its seriously not worth it)

@kuf412
Confirm with the HR. All the fresh grads with degree I know start as executives.

In Petronas, you start as technician will end up as technician. Unlike Petron or Shell you can progress.
That's the reason why most Petronas staffs run away after few years.

not true. there are rank and file employees ended up being an executive/ staff or principal engineer

but in this case, if one already has the degree, why would one start from being a technician?

But not much, this is what I know when I have a big TT session in Doha few months back with Malaysian.
If Petronas are giving good job security, why would a person run away?

Job security may not be the utmost concern for all individuals. We are looking at different things at different stages of life. Priorities change.

Anyway, many rejoined also.

That I don't know.

Hmm i just look at the Career opportunities website.

While i am really interested in applying for the production technician position i would like to know what's their shift roster looks like. if 2day/2 night weekly then...meh.

also onshore facilities, i bet the roster allowance is the same as i can relate during my training at BIF last time.
