Design institute transfers to environmental protection

2016-12-17View Original

Thread Content

I have been working at a design firm for five years in the field of process engineering. My current salary is around 6,000. There hasn’t been much progress in my career, as I haven’t had much experience working on large-scale projects or those that involve detailed process documentation. My tasks have mainly involved writing safety reports, handling piping work, and working on various auxiliary utility projects. At present, I don’t see any good opportunities to work on bigger projects, and I’m somewhat content with my current comfortable lifestyle. Working hours are quite flexible; there’s more than a third of each day available for free time, allowing one to take care of household matters as well. Now, environmental protection companies are approaching me to work on EPC projects for hazardous waste treatment; my role mainly involves preparing piping diagrams and specifying equipment requirements, or participating in research and development. I don’t know if I should change it or not Can one learn something? What are the prospects? Firstly: I’m afraid the path ahead will become narrower, because I really enjoy chemical engineering design; by being exposed to a wide range of things, I can learn more. If I enter the environmental protection industry, can I still work in a factory doing production? Secondly: the price they offered is definitely higher than what I earn now, but in third-tier cities, I’m not quite convinced that they will be able to deliver on their promises. I’m too stuck right now; could I ask someone with experience or an experienced senior for some advice? Not very grateful....

If you really haven’t done any proper work, then forget it; you won’t be able to hold on at HOLD, and if you get fired, you might not be able to come back.

It’s important to figure out what you were able to do for others in the past

Bro, I’ve been working in a chemical plant for 5 years now and am planning to take the exam to switch to working in a design institute~

I have been working in production, and now I want to take the certification exam to join a design institute.

:Why is the salary only 6,000 after working in a design institute for 5 years? Even during the probationary period here, the salary is higher than that

It takes process engineers five to six years to get up to speed in a design institute, so there’s no need to rush.

It depends on the region; he is in a third-tier city. What city are you in?

It’s quite good. I’d better stay at the design institute. If I were there, I would use my free time to obtain all the certificates that I can get

I feel it’s not good to stay in a design institute for too long; back then I didn’t have any contact with reality in that institute, so I didn’t know many things

Environmental protection companies generally do not have high profits, so salaries there are usually low. In third-tier cities, an offer of a higher salary than what you currently earn doesn’t seem very attractive! It’s not like you can take on leadership just by showing up!
