nop..im waiting for LO..currently working somewhere else..

under what project?

I am exactly in a similar situation like you. Now considering on whether to accept the offer from Petronas. The increment is not that much, however, looking at the JD it will be quite a huge role covering 16 OPUs. Benefit wise it's more or less similar.

I am dilemma now because my current work environment is very flexible, i.e no one really cares if you are in the office or not, as long you are contactable and able to carry out your tasks on time. You can even work at home/Starbucks for all they care.

The only downside with my current company is I that have a limited career growth. Whereas in Petronas, I was made to understand during the interview that my career growth will be well planned in the next 5-10 years.

So yes, I am still undecided at the moment... :-/

In your case, I somehow tend to disagree with your senior colleague on his opinion. IMO an environment of a workplace really depends on the culture of that particular organisation. You'll never know until you explore it further.

Finally got offer letter -.-

This is why I'm so relieved:

1. Apply Discover Petronas: mid january 2013
2. Received SI appointment: end of march 2013
3. SI: 19 April 2013 (along with a hundred over other applicants I think)
4. SI result: end of May 2013 (just graduated from uni at same time)
5. Medical check letter: start of October 2013 (Submitted med result same day)
6. Offer letter: 8 Oct 2013 (report for PIPE 18 Nov 2013)

Timeline from application --> Offer letter = 9 months. Mad torture for me....had no idea it will take that long. Maybe coz I'm a fresh graduate.

I didnt read the previous posts in this thread so once i got result didnt bother applying anywhere....which left me 5 months on my part time job (took part time so if petronas came calling i can quit anytime). Only after reading posts from sifus here i decided to apply elsewhere, but thankfully Petronas got back to me .

As for Petronas HR, I dont think its fair to label them as extremely slow. Sure some are and some even rude, but I was very thankful to my HR manager who first handled my case. I'm pretty sure she had loads of other applicants to handle and whenever I called her to enquire she was always understanding and tried her best to communicate with my department. Should blame the atrocious filing system for Petronas.....even their own HR are complaining about it.

Btw any Pipeline Engineer around here? If so can enlighten me about the job scope in petronas?

Also anyone else attending PIPE next month??

Hey guys. i noticed some of u applied petronas job by sending email. If u guys dont mind, can u share the email address of their HR. I hv applied through the discover petronas, but no +ve feedback from them yet. Thanx

congrat bro...

im still waiting for it..hope can report to PIPE same date as yours..

Pipeline engineer in PMU? PMO? SKO? SBO?

PMO i guess? Offer letter only says projects and engineering division in kl.

Went for SI interview last week and got a call from HR stating that I got an offer into HSE department. What is the job scope of HSE department ? I am really interested in process engineering, is there a chance (years later) for me to do process engineering after accepting this offer in Petronas?

Bright future for HSE. But it depends on your own interest. I guess you are chem eng background.

May I know what is the most efficient route to apply for an entry level position in Petronas? DiscoverPetronas? I have been waiting for so long. HR email? Anyone is generous enough to provide the email? Thanks in advance.

DiscoverPetronas

Hr email? forget it unless he or she was your friend..kalau ramai2 hantar email..boleh meletup inbox..PETRONAS maa....

I have just received the offer from Petronas for a position of Senior Geoscientist as direct hire staff for 2 years. During interview, HR said contract staff is not entitled for any form of bonus.

Based on my calculation, the increment they offered is 7% of my current salary (if factor in 2 months bonus; which I usually will get). I complained and asked for revision, and they said I cannot factor in my bonus to calculate my expected salary because Petronas will also give bonus to contract staff but based on Company's discretion.

I read in previous post and I understand if they say bonus payout is based on Company's discretion means it is not going to happen. Anyone has any experience on this matter?
