Hi all, need some advice. I am a fresh graduate and I just got a job offer in Penang as an electrical consulting engineer with basic salary RM3.75k. I’m actually interested in the consulting line, but the benefits a bit disappointing. HR told me site allowance only start after 30 days (not in the offer letter), mileage claim can, but no OT allowance. Insurance only after probation, and offer letter got “no-show clause” (need to pay 14 days salary if I don’t report after signing). Since I’m from Sabah and have a gf in penang, relocating to Penang with only 3.8k (before allowance) feels quite tight, especially with rental and car loan. At the same time, I am still waiting result (told to wait for 2 weeks) for an Automation Engineer position from a renowned MNC, which I might think have better salary and allowance package. I need to confirm with the offer within 7 days. Guys, I really need some advice....

QUOTE(raymondwong1808 @ Sep 24 2025, 05:30 PM) fresh grad getting 3.75k I would say it is quite a good start. what is there to complain about? How much you expect to get for fresh grad? 5K? Perhaps the benefits , I compared it to my fellow friends , but also they are in the semicon field and MNC too. In the semicon field can start from 4k and above for fresh graduates. |

QUOTE(funnybone @ Sep 25 2025, 09:23 AM) The pending result an MNC company based where? Penang as well? Suggest to accept the offer, just in case the pending one does not work out. Then react accordingly when the pending result is favourable, continue to explore it as well. This is basically your first job. You're allowed to make one "mistake" of looking not professional by doing short term job hopping. The MNC company is based in KL |
