Is it better to work in a catalyst company providing technical support, or to work with the client side on new plant construction?
Thread Content
I am currently involved in the construction of a new plant at a private oil refining company (the owner’s company) as part of the project team; having a background in process engineering, I perform tasks related to process engineering. Now I have an opportunity to work in technical support at a private catalyst company. I’m not sure which option is better PS: The design firm chosen for the new hydrogenation plant is terrible; the equipment purchased was won through low-bid bidding, and its quality is poor. I’m worried that problems might arise in the future.
May I ask which catalyst company is hiring? Could you give me a hint? I want to go too
I think it’s better to be the client. When you become the service provider, technical support can be very exhausting – there are all kinds of strange questions and demands from the client, and you have to treat them with the same care as if they were your first love for the rest of your life. But catalyst manufacturers might earn more; it’s up to you to decide.
Personally, I think participating in the construction of new installations allows one to learn a lot and improve skills quickly, laying a solid foundation of experience for the future! ! !
But it is a hydrogenation unit that is being built by Party A, and the design institute is of very poor quality; I’m really worried that problems might arise in the future and I’ll have to deal with them myself
Work location? What about the treatment? The industry is in a downturn right now, but the boss is still building factories; he has money. What kind of company is that?
Try not to do technical support. The potential for further development is too weak, and salaries are quite high. According to the technical support provided by a Danish catalyst company, 20 K/M is the upper limit; if you are a process engineer, this amount might just be the starting point. So it’s better not to leave the engineering industry and not to be tempted by short-term gains.
It also depends on which private enterprise it is; going there can turn out to be a mistake in some cases
