I do have a friend who worked there..he said bonus is not that high which tallies with what you guys have been saying here - about 1 to 1.5 months. However the benefits are good and working hours are quite flexible. Salary wise I also don't think they can offer very good unless you are already underpaid but like deckhand said they don't lowball and they give you according to the market rate.

My friend told me that they are expanding this year...hiring a lot of IT staffs. Probably cutting headcounts overseas and hire Malaysia here cause we are cheap labors tongue.gif

Agree on salary wise. If you are underpaid, then you will see as a big jump. But if you’re above market, sometimes you need to get a paycut or less than 10% increment. Some of my referral accept, some were rejecting. Anyhow, you have your own bill to pay.

Malaysia rate are super cheap and even the engineering also expanding. Local Malaysia  Eng/IT folks are talented and cheap(rate)1 europe guy can pay 3-5 resources in Malaysia.

So on one hand it's good because we get more opportunities due to cheap rate...on the other hand we are cheap labor like bangla to them rclxub.gif

For Eng, I can’t comment since I’m from IT. Maybe different pay range.

For IT payscale I can said it is top 30 maybe. Salary wise for Senior is starting 12k and cap at 16k. Hardly to reach 18k unless you’re super talented or senior architect.

If you need higher, jump to management , became Cc leader/Head. Salary wise around <23k.

I was surprised to see the salary range is similar to other Nordic companies. Thought given it's an oil and gas company it'll be higher hmm.gif

Bonus is also lower than I expected...maybe Petronas pays too well? Or it's just rumors as well?

Perception is important in the industry (Whether O&G or not).
Many those joined this company at initial stage was WOW'ed by salary as they (many) came from underpaid background..
PETRONAS pay for permanent is not that crazy but once add bonus and see annual package, can say very good

I was once offered by Petronas for an IT role and I think it pays higher than other industry but I rejected the role because it's still lesser than what I am getting. Bonus I don't know tho..how much bonus does Petronas pays?

Ya perception is important..some says banking gives big bonuses but some of my friends who worked in local bank says otherwise hmm.gif

since you said flexible hours, may i know if they enforce the work in office thingy?

most tech companies they do enforce 3days WIO 2days WFH arrangement, while some is more flexible as in satisfying x number of WIO days and you can arrange when you like to go office as you like

so how is Orsted going?

and how is the range Orsted paying for mid senior (something between junior and senior) ?

They don't really enforce it as far as I know..it's more to up to your manager and you don't abuse it.

Pay wise I am not sure about the range. I do know if you are getting low paid from other firm..you will probably get more here but if you are already well paid I don't think you will get a lot here.
