Pros: The benefit package for the oil and gas industry here is actually pretty solid. We get good health insurance and a decent retirement plan, which is a big plus for a corporate energy company like Repsol Indonesia - PLI.
Cons: However, the base salary for Field Engineer roles in the Jakarta office isn't always competitive. I've seen better pay scales elsewhere, especially for the amount of onsite work involved. Annual raises are often minimal.
Advice to Management: Management should really review the salary bands for technical positions, especially for those of us doing demanding onsite work. Bringing salaries up to current market rates would significantly boost morale and retention.
