your question is quite hilarious and not depict experience from your end.
i dont know and dont care which company wants to pay you 75k as a permanent staff but zenith bank is big name enough on your CV to open doors for you be it contract or full time..besides, look at the salary difference, cost of tp to and fro work, more opportunities in the banking sector and other jobs as well due to the fact that you are a ZB staff.
A job is a job regardless of its duration and titles attached to it.

wisdom should be paid for in this generation

@exco90 Both no worth am.
But choose 110k and save massively for 2 years.

Do whatever it takes to save atleast 50k monthly .

Let say you spend 1700 for food and transport you’ll be left with 60k..

Use 10k chop life , save 50k ..
With 1.2m in 24 months , u can start your own little biznesss..

The 75k is worst because you will be left with just 50k after you comot 900 x 26 days( transport fares)..

Let’s say you spend 1500 for food daily and other expenses (45k) you will be left with 5k ..
Except u go Dey thief, there’s no how u go save anything reasonable. Mind you this is raining season where cost of transport Dey high.

That’s slavery .

May God bless our husles.

use 10k chop?. Na wah guy man need to seat up oh. Someone is planning spending 10k for a whole month.

In a sane country, You will easily switch to another job within 18months, but in Nigeria it's not that easy except if You have more professional certifications and experience in Your field, then God's grace.
I would have suggest You should go for the one of higher salary, be it contract or not.

Nothing is permanent again in Nigeria. Op just take a look at the dollar from January till now.

Lemme advice you as someone with experience zenithbank..the zenithbank bank for contract is not contract per say.the first 2 yes na contract ,then another 2 yes ,then u become a full staff automatically..if urr lucky u can be converted in two yrs if u're doing well ....so grab the zenithbank job ..don't say I didn't tell me..and if I were j I will apply for marketing

Read and understand .
He’s going to spend 1500 daily for 30 days which is 45k
Plus 6k transport , he’s left with 59 or 60k from the 110k..

He should save 50k and use the remaining 9 or 10 to cover other expenses ..

Let her choose the contract job and spend miserly intentionally in order to save towards establishing her own business at the expiration of the contract.

I read it and understand you well. 10k is just for flexing isn't it?.

Connected1:

#1500 daily for food?

Rent and miscellaneous nkor.

Is #1500 even enough for feeding daily, unless you will have to eat what you dislike, inflation rate is high.

True talk.

In today's reality, the manufacturing sector is struggling under cost of alternate power (diesel), cost of raw materials, cost of transportation, sourcing for FX for their raw materials.

So if they are not manufacturing what people can absolutely do without and/or manufacturing the affordable brands of essentials, then it is well.

I think she should review both packages. I am seriously biased towards the Bank job because it is much closer to the house and pays more.

The financial sector also seems more 'secure' than the manufacturing sector right now.

However, I remember that even banks have their retrenchment waves.

It is well.

These things are bringing the country's realities to the fore.

I like you. Very intelligent woman.

businesslandnig:
I will advise your sister to go for the Zenith Bank Offer....

1. I guess what you mean by 'Contract ' is that she is a seconded staff. Being a seconded staff does not deny her any benefit- as she will be entitled to HMO, and Pension. Outsourcing is only a cost saving strategy for the bank. Every employment is a contract.

2. Employee Value Proposition: A lot of job-seekers don't understand the value of having a big-brand on their CV, It confers some credibility in future career pursuit. As a Recruiter, they are caliber of candidates you don't get to 'interview' you woo them, simply on account of where they work. Its called EVP.

3. In 2022, two years is a long time for the Gen Z, gone are days of long-service award.

4. There is nothing like permanent job in today's world... Every employment offer today has a clause that gives the employer right to terminate your employment with or without cause.
5. Work-Life Balance You can imagine what getting home by 6pm as against 8pm will do to her health and social life

6. Lastly, is the obvious reason, the salary and transport cost difference.

Germane point.

yes it is

Collect the 110k job, use your Fi, save your salary and start a lucrative business with your huge savings.

Zenith please.

They can retain her
She can save
Less stress
She would be productive and get Favoured

Some Permanent jobs are nothing to write home about

Zenith bank so called "contract job" is actually easily renewable and you get converted before four years to full staff and you enjoy certain benefits too. It's much better in my opinion. The job is also very secure as long as you don't commit fraud. Plus you can easily move to other banks with the experience. That is if of course the person loves banking job.

I buy BTC, gift cards and other cryptocurrencies at a very high rate.

Let her go for ZB. The contract isn't really for 2 years as you can resign at any time you wish to. If she put her ears on the ground, she can switch department to one that has transferable skills. Pay has also been reviewed (gone up obviously) and she might end up not touching it as the tips you get in a day is enough to cover transportation costs and feeding.

All the best.

Nothing is permanent again in Nigeria. Op just take a look at the dollar from January till now.

The news of the Naira crashing reminds me of the day the Nigerian government unpegged the currency to USD while I was living in Lagos.

Overnight the value of the Naira against USD went from 200 to 1 to 310 to 1. The street exchange rate (which is sometimes more accessible and reliable than the ATMs) spiked to over 500 to 1.

Literally overnight my purchasing power doubled. Coffees, cab rides, and groceries cost half as much as they did the day before because I was spending from a US checking account.

Completely changed my perception of money.

Of course, the opposite happened for Nigerians paying in Naira. Software subscriptions, glass bottles, and energy prices spiked.

To make things worse, banks locked down Nigerian accounts so people overseas couldn't withdraw more than a few hundred dollars at a time.

Some international businesses see this as a strategic advantage. The cost of labor halved. I'm grateful to all the companies out there that peg Nigerian's salaries to USD and other reserve currencies.

My thoughts are with the people whose hard earned wealth is undermined by the whims of the global economy.

My thoughts are with Nigerians.

Both contract and permanent staff positions at Zenith bank should be seen/taken as temporary jobs. If you did not join the bank in its early days and work directly with Jim Ovia you are likely to regret spending a long time there. Even the IT guys with entry level salaries of 6M + know this used zenith as a stop-gap job to a better job. There is no growth on that job.

VeryWickedMan:
Zenith bank job

Closer to home, more pay and more prestigious for your CV. The 75k job may not even last 6 months. Forget all that permanent tag, job na job.



Or you can ignore my advice and come back to open a wailing thread in 6 months time.

exactly job na job. To me both a permanent and contract job at a bank is the same thing. I will take both of them as a temporary job and not a career job

I agree. Sadly most jobs in Nigeria have similar attributes. It's just a stepping stone. Gather the experience you need, build and develop yourself and move to higher positions in other companies or industries. That's the best way to grow career-wise.
