Should I go?
Thread Content
I have been in the company’s engineering and technology department for over a year now; previously, I worked as a technician in the workshop. A few days ago, my former boss asked me to work at their factory for him, at 6,000 per month (including insurance and taxes). The salary now is less than 3,000 after deductions. If I go there, I’ll be in charge of all technical aspects. Our factory is currently building its second phase, which focuses on catalysis and hydrogen production (1 million tons). Over there is the first phase of 200,000 tons of aromatization. Should I go? I’m learning a lot here with the senior engineers; there’s someone guiding me. Could some experienced guys give me some advice? I have been working for three years.
I think it’s possible to do it; after all, making money is important, and skills can be learned on one’s own
Reply 3# sun-rock Moderator, please make it clear! I truly seek advice. It’s the first time after all. Will it get better once I learn it well now?
The most important thing is to see if there are better prospects elsewhere.
Reply to 5# Xu Minming: The factory has been in operation for three years now, while that other factory is just starting out. Now there is one boss, and over there there are four bosses. Now the factory is quite large in scale. Here, I am in charge of engineering technologies and processes, mainly dealing with the design institute; they take care of everything else.
One needs to have a proper understanding of oneself – can one handle things on their own? Based on your current situation, I personally think it’s not possible. Don’t focus only on salary; remember that there is a reward for each task or responsibility taken on. Making money is only a matter of time. Someone once said: In the first 5 years, never ask for a higher salary; what’s most important is to learn what you can from the company and whether it will be beneficial for your development... So if you can’t resist the temptation, it might be all in vain.
