Hi Guys,
I need some input on whether to leave my current PLC company or join a new GLC as a Type-C.
**Current Position:**
I am currently working at a Malaysian family-driven PLC that is quite diversified into many industries, including property, construction, hospitality and manufacturing. I have been with this company for 8 years and counting as a permanent employee and have received two promotions, the last being in 2021. Currently, I am second in line in my department.
Over the past years, my annual increment has been around 3-4%, and my bonus has averaged about 3 months. Additionally, I am the sole breadwinner, as my wife stays home to look after our kids.
**GLC Offer:**
I have received an offer from a Malaysian GLC with about a 25% salary increment and fixed allowances. Being a GLC, the benefits for my family and me are incomparable to those of a PLC, especially in terms of healthcare. The GLC has been paying around 4-6% annual increment and a bonus of 1.5-1.7 months on average, which I will also be entitled to.
The position is for Head of Department and is a 2-year contractual employment with an option to renew, which raises concerns about job security. However, I like the job scope and the opportunity for career growth and advancement, as I would be tasked with setting up the department, which was previously outsourced.
One of my main concerns is the need to adapt to a very different culture, values, and attitudes of people, as I have been reminded that coming from a PLC to a GLC requires significant adjustment.
I appreciate your thoughts and advice on this matter.
If it were contractual employment the pay rise should be at least 30% onward because you are taking risk of switching permanent role to contract role. For GLC it depend on company background and culture. If company like Sxme Dxrby, SP Sxtia, Mxybank, Ambxnk etc are okay since they are more like multicultural work concept. But it is hard for C to survive in Telxkom, Petrxnas, MxS etc coz it is not really a multicultural concept. In many GLC companies people used to enjoy the 1030am and 330pm teabreak, 2 hours lunch time, always not in their desk etc. I need some input on whether to leave my current PLC company or join a new GLC as a Type-C.

It is a good opportunity to become HOD and in many companies, HOD is equivalent to director level or close to. Many high position vacancies are contract based but make sure the compensation is good enough to take up the risk. There are many companies short of HOD level and when you got the experience it is good for your profile to find the next high level job. We are not talking about normal position role like executive to manager that most people prefer permanent role.
