    “Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about those who don’t. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would most likely be worth it.”

    Medyo mahaba ang kwento ko.. Iklian ko na lang..
    I've been requesting to be transferred here in our perth office since last year.. Pero wla daw open position for me.. Ang hula ko they dont want to pay for my relocation..

    I took a vacation leave (1 yr) from US, para pwde alo bumalik in case wala ako mahanap na work dito sa perth.

    2 days pagdating ko dito...pumunta ako dito sa office namin at sinabi ko i want to work here..ininterview ako ng Hr at ng ibang managers.. They said they will arrange something.. I never heard from them .. Until after a month...

    Last week they called me and offered a position.. ;) so i started today sep9..

    Ang problema, nakausap ko rin ang isa pang competitor company, and they will talk to me on friday for another position na alam kong mas mataas ang offer...

    So should i continue with company A, na dito na ako work for more than 5 yrs.... Or company B mas mataas job grade pero panibagong start at walang kasiguruhan kung magugustuhan ko dito...

    Note: company A is no.1 in the industry, while B is no.4 in terms of revenue/operations/number of employees...

    So help me God!!

    Wow, WHAT A WONDERFUL PROBLEM!! :)

    Congrats mate...

    My take on this, if the pay difference is very high more than 15% increase, I may consider Company B - however if less than 15% increase, I will slug it out with my old company and take comfort in the fact that I know the patakaran there.

    agree with TasBurFoot. Also, pag-aralan mo mabuti alin sa 2 ung inaalagaan mga employees nila, as well as san ka may mas matututunan. tska mas ok din if di ka na mag-rretool. :-) try mo kaya sabihin sa company A na ngooffer si B ng mas malaki? hehe
    Oil and Energy companies ba ito? Sa IT ka rin ba? :-)
    Congrats by the way sa magandang problem na yan :-)

    Oil and gas company po ito..

    Co A is twice the size of Co B

    @stolich18 - naalala ko, may master's thesis is with Co A.. I analyzed the career patterns of top 200 management and 200 ramdom employees... And manority of them started and stayed with the company.. It's one of the reason why i want to stay..

    Nag-aalangan din ako sa manager na naghire sa akin.. Sbi nya nilakad daw nya mabuti itong position na ito for me...

    Ikaw na ang bukod na pinagpala sa lalaking lahat! Lol. Congrats sa problema mo na sana ay maging problema din ng nakararami, kasama n ko. Hehehe.

    My take, minsan hindi lahat nattapatan ng sweldo. Look after the working environment and welfare of the employee. Remember, almost half of your life eh sa work mo ini-spend. Pero kung 50% ang pay diff eh ano pang pinapatumpik tumpik mo?! Hehehe.

    hello papa @lock_code2004...ang sarap ngman ng problema mo...kung ako naman ang tatanungin mo, setting practicality aside and following your heart, feeling ko mas better sa Co. A ka since yung loyalty mo is dito na and gamay mo na din ang industry nila dito...eventually, tataas din naman sahod mo sa mga raise, promotion, or sa negotiations mo eh...and ikaw na din nagsabi na no.1 si Co. A so mas malaki ang stability rate nya sa economy...you are safer sa ganitong companya... ;)

    @lock_code2004 boss tsip Company A lalo na kung kabisado mo na ang pasikot sikot, kumportable at di naman ganun kalaki ang offer ni Company B. Mas magiging madali na kasi ang buhay mo dahil gamay mo na ang sistema ni Company A.
    pero kung x2 or more ang ibibigay ni Company B at guaranteed contract ka for at least 6 months to a year, bakit hindi? kung hindi ka man i-renew after ng contract naka-gain ka na ng local experience na kailangan mo at mas malaki na savings mo.

    @raiden14.. Kung ikinakatakot mo ay wla kang makuhang work, hndi ka talaga makakuha ng work or hndi mo maitutuloy ang oZ dream mo, kasi panu ka mkpagsimula kung my takot knang nararamdaman. Sa paghanap ng work, kanya kanyang diskarte yan, kanya kanyang swerte, kanya knyang sipag, tiwala sa sarili at sa Diyos. Merong nkakakuha agad ng work, merun ding matagal bago mkahanap. Pro pag my takot ka sa mga ganyang posibleng mangyari, wlang mangyayari sayo. Magiging hanggang pangarap na lg ang OZ.. Panu mo malalaman ang swerte mo dito kung hndi mo susubukan? ika nga FACE YOUR FEAR..

    @raiden14.. Kung ikinakatakot mo ay wla kang makuhang work, hndi ka talaga makakuha ng work or hndi mo maitutuloy ang oZ dream mo, kasi panu ka mkpagsimula kung my takot knang nararamdaman. Sa paghanap ng work, kanya kanyang diskarte yan, kanya kanyang swerte, kanya knyang sipag, tiwala sa sarili at sa Diyos. Merong nkakakuha agad ng work, merun ding matagal bago mkahanap. Pro pag my takot ka sa mga ganyang posibleng mangyari, wlang mangyayari sayo. Magiging hanggang pangarap na lg ang OZ.. Panu mo malalaman ang swerte mo dito kung hndi mo susubukan? ika nga FACE YOUR FEAR..
    tama si @nfronda... you'll never know unless you try.

    @raiden14 oo nga tama si sis @nfronda, big challenge talaga ang pagpunta sa Australia, panibagong simula. Don't let your fear overcome your dream.. Kung gusto mo talaga yan, may paraan, pag ayaw, maraming dahilan.. ika nga, "admire the person whose dream is bigger than his fear" :)

    Compelled by our basic human nature, we always think that grass is greener on the other side of the fence. Many people leave the comfort of their homes in order to pursue big dreams, only to find that they were on a wild chase. Leaving our home may not always be the right decision but it will definitely help to mold us as a better person. Don't be afraid, take the risk and roll the dice.

    I need an input please. My hubby has an offer na for a managerial position. But the offer is kind of weird, only salary, super and leaves were discussed. Is it always like this in Au? Is it the normal offer? I mean no other benefits whatsoever? TIA.
