interviewed at mnc the other day
the hr guy was so dulan i didnt want to give my payslip and reference saying it will delay his processing speed if he had to ask me to provide it when they made the decision to hire me.

then i ask when can i expect to hear an update from them and they say 3 weeks lmao. topkek

then the hiring manager interview me tells me their schedule is not flexible, but you might have clients calling after working hours for help, would you help them?

basically want me to work OT without paying OT la

msia honestly damn xia sui to work in

pay so damn low but want people to wear 5 hats

all the lapsap fresh grad that took the low paying jobs are to be blamed.

also, that tiktok damn topkek wei, other industry people no need to skip meal to study until wee hours / work OT without pay? only ur stupid engineering industry?

seisohai took the low pay job and reinforce employers that they can exploit workers then want to bising2

if you are hired at RM1.8k, but you are also not looking for your future opportunities/jobs that are paying higher

then it's your fault for being allowed to be underpaid/undervalued

Working weekend, no OT?

That is against the labor law.

Instead of asking for OT, they ask to increase wage.

So does it mean later min wage increase, they can work weekend without OT?

Get your friends to lobby your MP / government to enact law to raise minimum wage and make it illegal for employers to ask job applicants' salary so that salary negotiation will not be lopsided and talents can earn up to their potential.

That's why my first suggestion is 'get your friends....'
...one of them can viral it on social media then see if your MP dare to forget.

Cause they got thousands of candidate lines up currently. Unless you are exceptional, like IVY league or big cable for project if not you follow their process not they follow you.

Candidates that worth their salt, can always don't follow process and choose which employer offer they want to take. there is no shortage of offer for those that are good.

Don't blame those candidate that take 1.8k, if you are truly good they are not your competitors for jobs and neither will their acceptance of lowball offer affect you as different segment of employers.

Out of 10 interview, 6 attitude like boss already. Hilang first and second day. 2 tak reti buat kerja. 1 cannot tahan a bit stress and got so many excuses not performing.

Well, rm1800 or rm18k starting pay.. if you can perform.. majikan also don't mind. Kerja kulit takkan gaji nak sama rata the highly skilled pipu in the company.

When quantity > quality, fresh graduate celery is around semi skilled blue labour level e.g Philippines. basically, bn and pn gomen have destroyed the quality for quantity.

there is always a spectrum to the freshie position, those in my Co's graduate program, the fresh grad pay is around RM6k for first 6 months, then after that gets sent to a few countries outside of home country for 2 years, for this period, monthly allowance is USD3k plus the original home country pay still jalan, after the program normally will be sent to high pot position, but of course interviewed 200 candidates, 1 also don't pass currently, Thailand got confirmed candidate 1, China got 4, Malaysia 0, Singapore 1, Indonesia 1, Australia 1, New Zealand 0, HK 1, so at the current moment only got 9 confirmed graduate program candidates...new meat for the grinder. Normal kuli freshie, my local ops hire I not sure how much they pay...none of my business also.

Fresh grad is company pay money to give opportunities to learn.
When already proven your capabilities, many companies will pay you big bucks to hire you.

Green lanyard fresh grad is starting at 4K, I know some of our new staff with 1st class honor and recipient of top student in University is earning RM5.5k and the career growth for that particular staff is already structured and by year 5 obtain HOD already, 5 figure salary is inkambing.

Question is, how many fresh grads does "green lanyard" take in every year? 10? 20? 30?

This against a backdrop of 1million grads being churned out yearly?

As a fellow ex-engineer best of luck to you.

Worked in 2 MNCs.
1st company went from a role of leading a group of 2+2 technicians to maintain separate production line to restructuring no technician under me all need to do by myself, while still doing engineer jobs.

2nd company before covid do massive layoffs, my maintenance dept. 5 mechanical engineer reduced to 1 (left myself, because youngest & lowest paid).

Both time no salary adjustment, no work handover, no discussion on how to manage new workload, nothing. You're expected to figure it out because 'that's why we hire you as an engineer, to solve problems (of our own making).' Salary at both company around 3-3.5k. Though I heard after that factory usually like that, not for engineer live one

To think that my uncle who's 75yo now was getting 2.2k in the 70s as an engineer (not even the top one although he completed some courses)...

Msia is damn sad... maybe because msian has always been able to survive with the minimum resources, especially the meleis, so kena perah kawkaw also nvm...

Well that's why it's in past tense, aye. Wouldn't ask for increment anyway, it's just not feasible to do all those jobs as one individual, wouldn't even do them if they add one or two zeros behind my salary.
1st MNC had me throwing up every other night because stress & not enough sleep. Multiple hat job scope really illogical if job is not simply on computer, you can't be at multiple places at the production line in one time.

Also become racist after those experience, but that's a whole nother story.

Lol. Ktards always insult others thinking so highly of themselves.
For all we know, this guy could be working in some small states like Kedah, Kelantan, Terengganu or east Malaysia. Not everyone works in KL/Selangor.
Last time my celery also increased by 1.2k immediately after I went to Selangor, same position, infact the company was even smaller in scale compared to the company I worked in my hometown. Somemore no bargaining, immediately hired me after interview, I think that was because they were expecting me to ask for more than a 1.2k increment.

Even if outskirts, rm1.8k is really bad.
