Bro yakup,

Got questions, how long it will take for technician to become exec?

I've gone to their walk-in iv, and I will be offered as technician instead of exec. Reason is because I am fresh and don't have any experience in the field, so I have to start from below.

But as far as I know, usually degree will be placed as exec right?  sweat.gif according to their HR la,

Anyway, I'm mechanical degree fresh grad.

Bro kerja technician with BPC sedap bro walaupun kau ada degree, kenapa perlu rushing naik exec level cepat sangat? Kau layan shift allowance and pelbagai allowance masyukkk duit brooooo.

Unless kalau diorang offer kau as Operation/Production Exec lain cerita - this one okay. Kalau setakat naik Maintenance Exec sahaja baik jangan.

Kerja shift sahaja is the lubuk nak buat duit lulz.

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.
