15% is consider ok... but considering those who earn more less increment but got bonus... heheh

u do the calculation la..

NOT BONUS, FOR ME IS NOT GOOD.... JUST MY OPPINION.
15%, DEPEND ON WHAT THEY CALL "PERFORMANCES"

15% ENOUGH TO FIGHT INFLATION ????? biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

I'm goin to join Silverlake on May. My interviewer is Mr Lee (Project Director) - Data Warehouse.
The team leader good or not?
During the interview, he said i hv to travel to oversea very often. Which country actually? I know Silverlake has 11 branches at oversea, so normally we travel to other branch to support? or other that these 11 countries?

Now i realised that no bonus at Silverlake, if the increament is good (15%) then i think its equal to almost 2months bonus (15% increament x 12months).

I believe that Silverlake is the good place to learn the banking stuff. Honestly... i don hv experiences in this fields, i'm from engineering line (software). I also get shocked when they offer me the position.

Any tips for me???

TQ

BE CAREFUL TRY ASK THEM WHAT IS THE VISA THEY GIVE YOU WHEN OVERSEA.
IF IS WORKING PERMIT IS GOOD ... rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif
IF NOT YOU MAY BE A ILLEGAL WORKER THERE. rclxub.gif rclxub.gif

WORK OVERSEA = TO WORK LONG HOURS ALSO
NOT EASY, THINK TWICE IF REALLY MAKE UP YOUR MIND THEN GO FOR IT ..

About Silverlake pay, I think it will be more or less like this for Fresh Grads.

Starting Pay - RM2000
Adjustment upon confirmation (6 months) - +RM300 (unconfirmed)

Yearly increment (no backdate this year), depends on performance, averaging around 15%. Usually will happen around the month of April (evaluation starts on Nov/Dec)

No Bonus as of yet.

Parking Claim (Max) for Office (KPMG) - RM150

Flat Claim for Parking (Client Side), must be based in Client side > 10 days - RM280

Per Diem (based on Overseas) - RM90 per day (Dubai and Saudi different rate)

--------------------

Most of this are mentioned in previous postings.

darkcraw, you got alot of offer eh? Well, I think the best advice I can give you is, gun for the job you think you can grow most (in terms of knowledge and cashflow biggrin.gif).
Since when Silverlake ever issued working Visa? As far as I know, Dubai, Saudi, and Jakarta projects all using normal Visa to enter (hence leading to the Jakarta entry problem) biggrin.gif

not 15%...... increament is so low this year , most ppl get the standard rate + adjustment for those work 1 year is RM400
so increament is RM100 .... 5%.... the 10% is in the sea...

that per diem, = RM90 per day, NOT OT TO CLAIM, SATURDAY SUNDAY ALSO NEED TO GO IF ASK TO DO SO,

fresh graduated can easily get RM2600 outside... compare silverlake after 1 years Rm2400 + -
you wanna do ??? rclxub.gif rclxub.gif


IF YOU DO MAKE SURE YOU CAN FACE THIS BELOW: whistling.gif whistling.gif

I scare later you cannot face your friend and your parent ...

How are things in Silverlake BI (DWH) now ?

if you wanna know
I can tell you A BIT,

Ask yourself you really like BLACK COLOR SCREEN WITH GREEN COLOR WORDS?
YOU LIKE TO PROGRAM SOMETHINGS WITH F1 TO F24 AS YOUR BUTTOM ?

AS400 IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT FROM WINDOW PROGRAMMING.
you need to take many time to familiar with the system.
and many things you will need to do manually.
is totally not like windows have all those .dll mad.gif mad.gif

The company give you not back-date not bonus.
Oversea MAYBE IS MAYBE NO LEGAL VISA. thumbup.gif thumbup.gif thumbup.gif
