Just be positive bro.. if the time comes, we just have to walk our heads tall and continue to find other means of survival.

Industry as a whole is convulsing due to low oil price whicb frankly is outside of our control. A lot of us know of friends and colleagues who have been let go and the only thing we can do at the moment is be on the lookout for opportunities for our colleagues. I just recommended one friend who lost his job late last year for a job that I saw a headhunter was looking out for.
*
Yeah. I'm also helping out my friends and ex junior colleagues to find new opportunity.

If any of you guys with experience is having difficulties securing a job after a long period, just let me know. I'll try to help.

Last week my boss told us we will need to really do the best and pray for our survival this year. Top management is looking into downstream now.

Petronas started to cut jobs is really a good indicator to show how bad is the situation now.

Seriously.. I think O&G now is only good for freshies. The risk is too high and almost unbearable.

All this information about Petronas cutting salary and retrenching people are just that, rumours at the moment. They are obviously looking at ALL options at the moment and the way Petronas works is that if you come up with an option, then you better do an in-depth study for the pros and cons. The management will then decide in March on which options they are going to implement. Until then, no news is good news.

it really depends.. first they will gauge your cooperation then performance. if you're defiant or under perform to their expectation, its going to be an obvious reason. Not havinga good relationship with your boss is another stand point on getting rid of you. Pay is the next reason, on determining whether its economical to retain the staff. lastly, last in first out is the only option if they cannot decide.

Petronas is in survival mode now. They havent touch the permanent staff but for direct hire like me and manpower service all chopped. Those who had managed to renew their contract last year is quite fortunate as this year there will be no renewal.

Day raters, MSCs and Contract Direct Hires are being offered permanent positions in Petronas but obviously, there will be massive pay cuts (for Day Raters and MSCs especially). So we'll see.

Ahh the "ignore mode" is such a blessing.

Myself as HR mentioned they are going to convert us to permanent but up until today i havent attended SI. TA already done. Been waiting for the news but it looks like its the Petronas HR central is the king now. My colleague up until contract finish no SI.. And it looks like the same to me.

Yup, no urgency on HR side. I wish we could fire all of them wholesale. My RE friend was supposed to be converted and his contract expired 2 weeks ago. Still no news so recommending him to a headhunter who is looking for REs.

Hey guys, would just like your humble opinion on career and the current O&G situation. I'll be receiving an offer for a grad position in well engineering and would like to know what are your opinions in taking up this job? Currently working in a consulting firm with a decent pay of 3.5k not including allowances.

I'm highly interested in the MNC firm so changing from one industry wouldn't be a problem, just worried on how the oil crisis would affect my work and job progression the next couple of years.

Cheers!

That happens in most companies.. and also if you retrench the guys that are longer the amount they did to pay them is higher. For a person that only works for a year, the cost is lesser to get rid of them, must account for that also..
