Job-Hopping: Killer or Savior
Thursday, May 30, 2013
It's very common that people leave their jobs because they're in
pain. Miserable working life, works overtime but low pay, annual bonus are
way-too-low, not happy working with the company. It has become a phenomena
which makes the workers nowadays simply changing jobs for their own will.
In fact, you might realized that many of your friends around you are made their
changing career paths, either resigning their recent jobs or hopping to a
better workplace. Well, something we need to be discuss here: Does job-hopping
your career killer or savior?
"Hop" for a Better Life
Some of my friends told me that they're leaving because of their pay grade. According to the research from Ministry of Human Resources, the
basic pay grade for office freshmen are between RM1,500 to RM1,800. Small
raises will be given if you're servicing your company for quite sometime or you
have an advancement opportunity. Clearly that's not enough to feed themselves
in urban areas and this will be their main reason to hop for a better job, at
least we could have a slight raise of 10-15% of your previous pay. But if this
is your only reason to go for job-hopping, you'll end up with unsatisfied in
long term.
I'm Not Being
"Appreciated"
Duh, it's kind of lousy reason for most of us unless you're in
hit. We might not being appreciated by your supervisors or team leader even
you've done a good job, cause they have so many stuff to handle with, it's
normal that they might not noticed you sometimes. But there's only ONE supervisor/manager over 20-odd staffs, come on, please hide your
egoism and do your job. Same things will happen to you even you hop to the
other workplace. Do understand their situation before complaining them.
I Can't "Blend" Well
with my Colleagues
How about working as an entertainment newscaster? Remember, you're
not working in a gossip company. If this is the only thing that you want to
achieve, you better don't take that as your reason to leave your company.
Office politics are all around the place, sometime you might don't even
realized that you're enrolled into this tribune.
These are not my excuses for me to leave the company, I've been
experienced several companies who doesn't pay or for my job. Be smart when
you're in the battlefield. Think twice before you make the move, and once
you've done, don't regret.
