oh. didn't know tht the demand for open source in malaysia is so good
*
most MNC still afford those microsoft/oracle product

what i mean is if the company you interview is looking for open source expert and you qualify for it, you can request for 10k easily as knowledge NOT LUCK that bring you good salary ... malaysia really lack of open source expert

is he underpaid? i think so, why in the world would they call that position an "account manager" anyways??
he might as well be working for a call centre. constant and quite high percentage increments from what i heard. and you don't have to sell anything. just assist.

what do you guys think about govt jobs?or statutory bodies?
*
for some company, the word 'manager' has different meaning.

the job is to manage the account, hence call account manager.

like project manager, it doesn't mean you are a manager, but in fact you are manage the project.

before you ask for higher paid, you need justify what value you have. does your job give you any value ?

and you only hold diploma. degree is every where nowadays. some company will consider that also ... means they can hire you but not much.

For me, Degree or Diploma not so important especially for experience worker as the employer tend to evaluate you base on your working experience before looking at your education level. So, even holding a Diploma, you might be getting a better opportunity if you have very good working experience compare to Degree holder which knows nothing. Your Degree or Diploma only useful if you are a fresh grad since you do not have any working experience to sell yourself when trying to get a job.

i hope you are saying working experience with good value ...

example ... 2 IT people A and B ... A's task is only update the database for 10 years ...
B task is doing project, has implement 10 projects in 5 years.

who got more value when looking for next job ?

I have experienced with one of our staffs before. His hold a Degree holder in IT. Our boss pay him as a Technical Support Executive and I will reported to him.

First day, our boss ask him to help me repair some users pc....i ask him to check the video card, coz im busy to setup server....i think 30 minutes later his bring to me all the card that his take out from main board....his give me memory too... biggrin.gif  ... and the next day his not in...

and i also have some experienced with Master Holder in IT....that time we support Motorola Semiconductor Seremban....this guy using notebook....his call me via phone..his notebook can't connected to LAN...then i ask him to tight the LAN cable..his don't know....then i ask to check UTP cable ....also don't know...then i ask to check the RJ45..maybe the small cip broken...lagi dia tak tahu what his RJ45....lastly i said...."bang, u kasi ketat itu wayar yang masuk dekat notebook awak tu!!!.."...then ok...that kind of words more better than IT words.....

which is important???...the guy berlagak dengan master/degree yang pakai kot hitam or...kuli which always clamping the UTP cable????????
*
i not saying degree always smarter then diploma holders. my point is some company will hire and pay people base on their cert. same to promotion.

as ur case, why you need report to a degree holder? because he a degree holder. but i wont saying all degree holders are genius. as degree is so easy to get nowdays

Might to tell what is the different between salary adjustment and increment??

Which should give higher increase??
*
normally adjustment is for promotion.

and it is quite a lot ...

example, let said your current is RM2k for a junior position and if you get promoted to senior, your paid could be adjusted to the next level at 3k++ ... each company has their own pay band ...
