no, never lower your expectations. low salary always a sign that company or industry is not willing to upgrade and grow, or worse, aiming to benefit top few only by exploiting cheap employees. look further beyond malaysia if need, don't get stuck in a company that doesn't provide growth, especially for fresh graduates. there are vast opportunities out there if malaysian companies not ready to provide. don't get intimidated and under estimate yourselves.
Fresh graduates should also prepare to adjust their expected their salary range and have a review of their own priorities and goals before beginning their journey, since the average starting out salary for graduates is about RM2,000.
My starting salary in 1986 as fresh graduate engineer is RM1,000 with staff quarter.
Imagine by 2021 after 35 years starting salary only RM 2,000. What has gone wrong?
