Job Title : Advertising & Promotion (A&P)
Job Desciption : All about event planning and execution for internal and external parties.
Years spent in company : 2 months
Company : Local conglomerate
Industry : Marketing, A&P
Tenure : permanent
Employment Level : Exec
Experience before joining : 2 years
Salary : RM 2.7k
I get lots of scolding from numerous external parties because my few levels of management can never agree with each other when it comes to decision-making. When decision is finalised, it's already considered last minute job and I get scolding from them for 'bad planning'. They are so cheap that myself have to be my own despatch person and even do lots of lowest point of job areas that any part timers or uneducated people can easily be hired to do it for me. Knowing it's events life, I have to work until really late in office daily, even sometimes up to midnight ++ so I can forget about my social & weekends life (we have few events every month without fail). It's all rush rush, scolding scolding, late nights and high turn-over rate in my department.
Tell me..is it worth the RM2.7k to have a life like that? I don't know... any advice?
For 2.7k for a life like that, i'd say it's not worth it. Plus you have 2 years of experience. I am not sure what the standard salary rate is for your industry, perhaps there are better jobs out there where you can demand a higher salary.Job Desciption : All about event planning and execution for internal and external parties.

But if you value the experience you're getting there i suggest you stay there for a couple of months while at the same time keeping your eyes peeled for any better job openings.
