60% increment can only happen in small or medium size company.. either u r really outstanding or u very 'good' wif the boss...

agreed.

Tell u what, i am the most quite employee in my company. Its a small SAP consulting firm (50 consultants)
I dont talk much with my bosses and my colleagues. I only talk when it comes to work and I dont socialize with them also.
You can say Im more like a 'kera sumbang' in my company.
But it didnt affect my work much coz, my job only do programming. But there was once I had assigned to a functional role which requires me to talk with users and programmers and i had to change the way I work and be more socialize with users and programmers to make my job easier.
Now, I changed back to programmer.

Let me tell you a worse story, I started work in the 1990s and the starting salary was the same hahaha. It's been the same for decades.

ic.. at least yr boss are someone who know how to appreciate their staff who can work rather than those who talk only no action.
i do prefer smaller company since it's easier for your boss to notice yr dedication and hardwork.. if in mnc, most of the time the one who talk cock the most and stick to the boss are usually the one who get good promo n increment.

last 5 year my salary is 1000.00
this year also 1000.00 and i have no prblem with it.

how to get salary more than 5k
1.mulut kena pandai bodek (develop ur communication skill,sure got people interested)
2.do what u like,like what u do
3.if u r not good in oral skills,then work hard sampai pengsan,then u can get >5k.

yr salary been 1k for the past 5 years? how come no increment/etc???

because for the past 5 years i've change workplace for 5 times (same job,same work-to-do).
em you know some people always seeking for new experience..i dont care much about salary.haha

some ppl like their job becoz of the passion n experience.. but then, money will still play a part in this.. unless u r rich n money is not a problem to u, then u can juz work for the passion n interest..
nowadays, it's very hard to survive with 1k salary...

you foreigner kah Even a promoter can earn higher than that. It's time for you to switch.

agreed with you on this, sorry for my post mate

not true, in dhl, starting range for fresh grad is about 3.5k, not all the companies pays the same, but to get that, you need to be outstanding.

just to support previous post owner.

my starting salary is 2.3k, jump to 5k in just 1 year, why? because i study like hell about linux, solaris, hpux, aix, windows, netbackup, emc networker, emc avamar, backup exec, storage foundation, cluster server, most of the os, my skill i can say in between beginner and intermediate range, but for all the backup software, i can say advanced, just imagine how much time i need to sacrifice, and social life too.

yes u r exactly right, this is what happened inside HP and EDS cyber, as far as i can see

i know of a friend...

qualification: top honours. FMCG industry. 1st job. starting >RM4k. after 1 year experience. >RM5k.

It's possible out there, frens

I just have spm oni, anything is possible, its up to us either we want to fork it out or not

yeah. people should not just settle for a RM1.8k salary. if can prove urself, anyone is worth much more than that.

wah.. u really study so many OS? really respect u....

i think u can achieve 10k salary in 5 years depend on how u develop urself becoming a competent person...my gf bro oledi around 10k salary after 4-5 years working, oledi change 4 company if i'm not mistaken...i hope i can oso develop my potential especially in rotating equipment...


(^____^)

i've heard of ppl changing jobs every year - is this really bad for their resume?

it's true some ppl can earn 5 figure in juz a few years time.. but then, how many ppl can really achieve it?
i know some sales person who can earn 5 figure although the juz work like 1-2 yrs...

Added on February 21, 2009, 5:15 pmmy personal opinion.. it won't look nice in yr resume if u change job every year..
yr future employee sure won't wan to hire someone who hv history of leavin the company after 1 year, rite..

i have a fren who is a insurance agent, became a millionaire just after 2-3 years he started working.

but he is like one in a million. he is a super talented sales person. (he could con like any girls during school...)

for me, i only got 5k salary when i was ~30. i am more of a quiet person who like to sit in my own cube and do my own work. i hv no complains though :-)

wow.. yr fren should stop sellin insurance n go and con those rich gals...
