Some roles in EM can be: Contact engineer, process design engineer, project engineer, product coordinator, optimizer, business planner, logistics planner, sales engineer, marketing engineer. The rotation is more common for chem. eng. grads as they r more versatile. The working hours seems to be more in EM than Shell, but less pay. It's more common to see EM ppl hopping to Shell. |

downstream is the refining and petrochemical plants... more for chemical engineers specialty chemicals and pharmas are also chemial engineers .... Basically they teach unit operations (separation processes) in chem. eng. syllabus . The basics can be applied to almost all chemical plants whether oil refinery, petrochem , specialty chem, or pharma as all plants consist of a series of separation processing units , sometimes with chemical reactor units. |

Anybody knows if there is any difficulty for a Malaysian working with EM in Singapore to obtain an Employment Pass? Would it be a straight forward application or should I expect a possible rejection? |

Hi, This is my 2 cts worth after being an engr in a defunct japanese company ( a OEM HDD media manufacturing firm & recently bought over by Western Digital).
It doesn't matter if you are in a jap or US manufacturing firm. The annual package is almost the same. :) So long as Singapore do not have enuf local MNC companies, we can forget about having high pay. Other than japs, I have met engrs from US, German, Italy & France . Their pay is comparable or slightly lower compared to accountants & doctors in their countries. In Singapore, unless you worked in certain engrg fields (oil & gases and stat boards with engrg positions) , that's what you can expect. I had switch field 2 yrs back after 10 yrs as a group leader to civil service. All I can say is it's much better in terms of pay & working hours. Man who left that company found better jobs that are not related to engrg. The one thing I missed is the engrg stuff. But I do have to say that my engrg training & exposure actually help me secured a few opening in banking & civil service. Quote:

Project engineer in petrochemical... Better get experience and goes elsewhere. everywhere is toxic gas.. every plant leaks...(matter of big or small). You will expect to check your plant design with process engineer and issue specification to stupid contractor to build new plant. Tons of standards and codes for you to follow as you construct them.... Risk your life to ensure MOM vessels are properly constructed and registered.....Risk your life going into confine space to check your equipment... Heavy responsibility for the "so call" high paid and not worth..Stress you out as you construct you plant. For pay wise...expected to get S$7k~8k in early thirties. Estimated EM will give you around 5k... |
