Let go just one week before CNY.

Just asking, what is your position and your salary (just provide us a range)?

Already mentioned above - RM4.5K before tax. No big deal hiding. I'm not like /k level.
Not young. Already 30. But it is what it is.
Position - Marketing Manager. Again, not some high ranking officer.

Oh? I didn't see it, scrolled too fast.

Marketing manager?
Strange, normally it is the lower level workers that got fired first. hmm.gif
Something isn't right here.

Uncle once saw a company terminated a senior employee so the upper management (the boss) can 'insert' his relative to the vacant position. dry.gif
Do you have any idea who is going to be replacing your position there?

I am also uncle bro. 30 years not young already.
To answer your question - the company is downsizing from 60 to 30.
I am not being replaced. They're closing down a few departments due to poor financial situation right now. A couple other managers also requested to leave.

Half? shocking.gif

May I know what is your ex-company business nature?
Manufacturing (what kind of product?)? Service (sales/technical support)?

Technology.
Don't want to go into the details but we do hardware.

A lot of technology related companies are moving out of Malaysia. Bad news for future graduates and job seekers.

No choice but to endure for now.
