if you as an engineer only do low level job like "check drawing" , then don't expect to be paid well.

QUOTE(+3kk! @ Aug 29 2018, 12:35 PM) ahh didnt word it right, they dont understand the job scope can say the same to those technician in hospitals & oil rigs?i see this in my industry really, my clients have an engineering department but all of them are technicians. Their job is to fix and perform general service issues with the equipment, not design and build. then you have my suppliers who also have engineering departments, but their job is to design , build and support. the former is normally paid much lesser, with no career path and just end up in the basement of the said building forever. |

Look I don't deny that there are folks out there still work underpaid jobs.Don't live in denial. yes there are still engineers paid in those figures. 1 of the Construction comp here that I know build road etc pays 1.8-2k for supervisor with or without technical certificates, those who has deg or better can earn double that amount. I'm just informing here so that anyone of u here who work in similar field know if u are currently underpaid or not. |

QUOTE(DURARARA5 @ Aug 29 2018, 12:04 PM) Why are engineers so undervalued, been seeing everyone has been saying that engineering pays super low, especially in the construction and design career path. Would like feedback before my brother ventures into engineering. WHY MALAYSIA LIKE THIS, WHY OH WHY!! ask him go germany studyi regret i no take that path if i'm not mistaken, u learn their language for a year then u get free education for the engineering course and also they value their engineers a lot |
