Ni nak citer sikit ttg kerja di Malaysia.... memandangkan saya adalah seorang jurutera, maka saya nak citer ttg kerja sebagai seorang jurutera...tinggikah gaji kerja sebagai jurutera?
Mungkin ya mungkin tidak...bergantung kepada syarikat kita bekerja...dan bergantung kepada industri kita bekerja...kalau kerja di syarikat oil and gas, mungkin gaji tinggi ler...
Tapi oil and gas pon, ada jugak yang starting hanya RM2,000 sebulan...
Masa saya di US dulu, saya masih ingat, starting gaji engineer fresh graduate, average about USD40,000 setahun.... atau about USd4k sebulan....banyak tu....kalau convert Malaysia, dah sampai dekat RM12k sebulan..tu starting...
Taraf hidup pon rendah di sana...lunch USd3 dah boleh dapat..
Adakah kerja di Malaysia gaji rendah compare dengan negara lain? Mari kita ushar pekerjaan di US (Amerika Syarikat)...
Ikuti artikel di bawah...
