            <description>Hi Guys,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Less than 1 year and I need your experience and opinions again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just received an offer letter from the government for a J41 position at Kementerian Kerja Raya and i dont know whether to take it or not. Ok briefly about my current career and life, age 33, currently at Middle income level, Job position mechanical engineer(Project engineer) at an MNC company. Good pay and Good benefits. Current Stress level manageable due to Covid-19, project a lot cancelled as budget cuts. Currently in probation for a permanent position. Owh BTW thanks to you guy for providing opinion on this job. See hyperlink.&lt;a href='https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=4867441&amp;hl=dodgemk2' target='_blank'&gt;Career Dilemma &lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Iam thinking about taking the G job but theres a few cons.&lt;br /&gt;1) salary will be back to lower income, i dont have any big commitment. So its not a big problem, but about rm2k lower.&lt;br /&gt;2) afraid of stagnant career in goverment&lt;br /&gt;3) politics, not to good at it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pros&lt;br /&gt;1) iron bowl&lt;br /&gt;2) less stress&lt;br /&gt;3) pension&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ive conducted a pool regarding to the position on my social media and about 80% say yes to it, but i also consider the 20% who say no to it. Just dont want to gamble of life changing experience.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the salary i have checked and i may could request for higher starting salary for my experience based on the below hyperlink&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href='https://www.spa.gov.my/spa/soalan-lazim/versi-bahasa-melayu/penetapan-gaji-permulaan-faq-bm' target='_blank'&gt;Salary&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However dont know la whether the boss approved it and when to apply for it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope to hear from you guys.</description>
