QUOTE(fraz006 @ Apr 14 2011, 01:10 PM) hye.. Heard exactly the same story from 2 of my frens which currently in PGB and PCSB....after two years.. when u stay inside long enough, u know la. i dont know about other companies, i guess all of them sama aja.is not what u know, its who u know. petronas with PPerformanceAppraisal. every year 10% number of staff in every department must be FORCE RANKED to M3. two years consecutively u got M3, got two options, must blah or improve in 6 months. its not that consequence of getting M3 bothers you, its how they force rank those 10%. because of that, the environment is not that comfortable at all (i dont say all will feel this way). Your fren may not trust you. Frens may not want to teach you too much. Ass kissers everywhere. Blaming culture. Too many non core job related initiatives KPIs that burden you. A huge urge to be visible to top management no matter in what way. i guess, there are certain people born and can adapt and survive in this type of environment. just think at once, are you this type? if not, contract staff only la. no need to be permanent. same also, insecure just like contract work maaa. benefits alaa, like you really use them, hehe. hehehehe. straight from bottom of my heart.  i got offers from Petronas last month but i decline..partly bcoz of the forced ranking environment which make me uncomfortable.... Somehow i am not convince my performance will be fairly evaluated/appreciated by the mgmt or colleagues..... But the main reason i decline bcoz the employment term & benefit are not that attractive anymore compared to last time.... even though the salary jump is >30%, it is still not good enuf to make me resign and take the challenge (risk).... |

QUOTE(epiyana @ Jul 1 2011, 05:49 PM) The other day they gave me a topic on customers' complaint but please bare in mind that i am an experienced staff from banking background so the topic could be different. Same case like me...i ditch their offer...they have cut off all the nice benefit for new comer....I they really consider you as an experienced staff then there should not be any Role Play. RP is only meant for fresh grads. So prepare more for the presentation of case study and also make sure that u more or less remember the answers that u have given for your online ability test because they have a session just to verify that. Anyhow I have rejected their offer.. salary not so competitive but the main reason is - the benefits suck and only good for fresh grads or maybe experienced staff who have never enjoyed the REAL benefits before. PLUS of course due to a MUCH better offer from the future owner of Warisan Merdeka Tower  ANYWAY GOOD LUCK!! hence the salary offered i have to normalise to minus RM700. Petronas benefits vs (inside bracket my current company): - no housing loan or car loan...(current company, housing loan interest subsidy - minus BLR 4% for up to RM450k loan, car loan-RM65k free interest loan) - 15 days annual leave & 1 day paternity..(after confirmation 22 days AL, 3 days paternity) - medical benefits: Outpatient RM 4k annually plus dependants, hospitalisation/major medical RM75k staff & RM20k each dependants (RM20k outpatient plus dependants, hospitalisation/major medical RM50k staff & RM50k each dependants) - dental RM400 annually, no optical (dental RM1,400 each dependant, optical RM400 each dependant) - unclear policy on reimbursable professional membership and study scholarship/assistance (memberships fees reimbursable up to 2 professional bodies annually, full scholarship for ACCA, ICAEW. partial scholarship for CIA, ESH/DOSH professional qualifications. max bonding period 3 years depends on amount of scholarship). But petronas still have plus points in my case such as: maternity 4k normal, 6k scissor......(none currently) EPF employer contribution 19% (my company 16%) the above based on what HRM personnel informed to me via e-mail...coz apparently in my case they do not mail the employee term & benefits with the offer letter..After due consideration, i was of the opinion that the offer (within 35% increment) still does not able to compensate other benefits which ill lose if i leave current company...PLUS ive received several other offer from non-MNC company who willing to offered 35% increment as well but the benefits much more worse.... |

QUOTE(mav3rick @ Jul 31 2011, 01:02 AM) damn.. i'm salivating just by reading your current company's benefits.. are you in the O&G industry as well? Not O&G... We are plantation based GLC, can easily guess which one...  salary wise, just within industry average only but benefit quite ok i must say... |
