of course..mainly upstream company are on their low..probably not taking new workers..

but since u are from chemical, u can try downstream.

people around me said that downstream will soar high during this downturn of upstream..because when there is no new oil/crude (offshore), downstream segment will try their best to maybe get their process more efficient, using less resource from upstream. there could be a new tech, new found science or anything. u may take advantage on that

just my 2 cents notworthy.gif

My company gave on average 3-5% increment to average staffs. The top technical staffs are getting around 10% increment.

I myself managed to get 12% increment this year. Syukur..

Apparently the chairman felt that the company need to reward the employees during bad turbulent times so the employees will remember the company during the good times. Is it a good move? Financially I don't think so but as a staff, hell yeah!! smile.gif

Congrats

Ur company done well by appreciating their assets: employees

that last bit of advice is the most important. when you have plenty try to spend less and save more. when you have less you can adjust accordingly. thats what i did after 6-8 months of no offshore and etc.

Actually downstream now will soar because the feedstock which is crude oil is now cheap.
