Hi rage,

I think this is the "standard" rate for a fresh diploma. Electronic sector pay sucks big time. Maybe you can give us a break down on which coy / your job scope.

Hi,

I'm working under a Europe MNC making consumer products.
I'm being hired under a job agency hired by the MNC itself. The job agency consultant is based here as onsite consultant.

My job scope is to do data logging, pcb rework, soldering, purchasing of lab equipment, steam rate testing, adhoc duties and maintenance of lab.

Forgot to ask your highest education level.

But then you just got double cut! Pay in consumer electronics is already low enough... and then you got hired by a agency.... even lower. I seriously suggest you spam resume and change job asap, or get some contacts to get hired directly by the MNC.

Just doing pcb rework earns much more...

gd luck

Associate engineer pay is ~2.1k - 2.3k now.

Wah like that i really underpaid -_-

I always tried to console myself that I'm paid this much because i'm fresh grad.

ok honest advise, just go work in a wafer fab process engr or something, shift work can earn you a lot more >2.5k TAKE HOME.

but again work in office can slack, like me i hold same position here and play forum all day long
