no Bonus, 2 years only @ RM 2700 salary..
why still got so many people work de ?

me and my friends graduate 1 year, and most of us oledi hit 3k now

i got frens work less than 1 yr in silverlake then jump to bank then straight get 2.5-2.7k per month. Silverlake no bonus but annual increment consider ok oso.. learn lots of thing.. u will never able to learn finish cuz there is alot of thing to learn expecially in AS400. mostly ppl will jump to bank bcuz they mainly doing banking system. so there is a high demand for ppl tat know As400. Good environment too. But now move to IBM there all staf pack in 1 floor. so pack n noisy. many ppl get to stay in client site once they start their work. some might stay for 1 yr at client site. =.="

Yup..kinda. Silverlake is good ground point for u to built up a base in IT industry. I dont see any flaw in their management but.. as day goes by we need more money and time to settle down. I used to do RPG/RPGLE programming on AS/400 but now have changed my path to Sun Solaris administrative. Thats why I go for bank.

Indeed now in new building is very pack and noisy.

environment wise, quite good. more better compare to last time in old building. can go shopping after works.. lol easy and convenience

talking abt salary.. increment for lower level at most 15%, is to be adjusted yearly. If only you got performance.. -.-" (to cover back the bonus?)

so far not so much bad comment abt the company as the senior there is really nice. So you can imagine a good helping working environment.

Oh yeah.. i am currently working there..
Ever since joined the company.. was addicted to the RPG program..
Like i addicted to Mac so much.. lol
okie..
Next time wish to work in a company where all equipment are mac..

I am working in silverlake now, not all the seniors or leaders are good, depend on ur luck, if u under a good leader, then good la, else.... ai.... suffer

Is there any open position in ur company now?i am having 3 years experience in vb.net and asp.net, is that eligible to apply for it? what email address that i should send to apply the job?

silverlakes - (back office) - RPG and all those language use by AS400...
axis, provide the front office system (windows based) - .net,java

salary? - sucks if your in kl..
growth? - u will be a programmer the rest of your life
bonus? - none for many years
increment? - depends on your boss, if he is lousy then u get lousy increment as your pay i based on your project budget..

me? ex silverlakers

I use to be silverlaker there. Maybe can share my experince there.

There is a lot of subsidiaries and i am just in one of it. There is why i duno RPG at all.

Maybe 4k++ for freshie is a lot to station in oversea. However compare to others compancy it is OK only especially if you do a lot of sightseeing and shopping (due to high workload? or bore life)

I experinces a lot when i was in oversea.. sad to say that many ppl breakoff ..
then another case is parent pass away and you are not there. Maybe for me family come first and i reluctant to base long time and got no future to staty at KL head office. Actually anohter reason is easier to look for job.
Of cos good point is gain more explosure and valueble experince with colleague.

Conclusion for me is If want to sacrify my freedom and base in lousy countries , it really have to be a lot. Just how i feel only and please dont feel i am act.

Comment (what shacxz mention is RIGHT)
---------------------------------------------
If you are in,
1. Plz go to client site no matter local or oversea as you can earn much espcially oversea. About rm80 min for day allowance. Many ppl will think it is a lot . As numerous people ask why you refuse to go oversea to earn double since doing same thing in KL. Yes i know i got no future thats y i left.

2. Good for freshie. I am freshie last time, so cant demand much really..

I was offered 2 work at Silverlake before, but i ditched them. >.<

Nice office though, too bad I can stay there.

Then how come u resign from Silverlake...since u told that it is a good company......???

Added on October 3, 2007, 8:35 pmFor my opinion, when having chance to go overseas when work in Silverlake; u have to think twice n make up yr mind before u go over...Anyway, u still have chance to tell that you not willing to go if family come in the 1st place.
But no matter which country u go, i still feel that it is better to work in HQ/KL. And it is good only for short term...if u feel enough, anytime u can request to go back KL..

Added on October 3, 2007, 8:39 pmCoz for new n fresh guys..it is a very good chance for them to learn...n have chance also to go overseas project which i think they do not have it when join other company...coz Silverlake is a very good 'training' ground !!
