I think time to change job

you can get much more better paid in customer service with ur experience...

BSEE, BEng(Hons)UK, B.Tech qualification holders earn the following annual salary ranges in the US.



It comes to an average of about US$70k per year for the the different types of positions listed. That's more than 5k a month.

If you're an engineering grad from the US, Australia or UK you may want to reconsider your job if your employer is paying you less than RM3.6k in Malaysia.That's not even 1/3 of what an average engineer job in the US is getting.

Comparing figures to figures(forget about the exchange rates), still they are getting at least 1.5-2 times more than us.

Just got offer from 1 of the airlines in UAE...which is double from i'm getting rite now. However, managed to check the cost living there during interview...and guess what...the cheapest apartment rent is RM10,000!

Any thought?

wow...cheapest is RM10k? dang it..how about foods over there? did you research on it too?

First of all, is because u're a permanent staff. My pay was low when i was permanent with atos origin.
secondly, u must touch every aspect of BI , from DW to helping the managers make decision.
thirdly, get a BI job in big MNC. Normally BI team is small, but whole world rely on this small team of people for their reports.
fourth = attitude

Yup...that too...1 set of McD value meal set is approx rm25...

Ur a fresh graduate b4 u working in Atos Origin?
Did they provide training on BI?
i went to the interview for Atos Origin Fresh Graduate Training Programme
but its involved in credit card software development and customization using COBOL at Mid Velley...
do you think its posible to get to BI at Cyberjaya?
and izzit worth to learn the "old" COBOL?

may i know where are you based? malaysia or overseas?
