Dear NLanders,
I have been working for a tier 1 Bank in Nigeria for some time and so far it has been quite good. I work with great people and the pay is reasonable. Recently, I got an offer to work in a multinational telecoms company. While this seems like a good offer, I am worried about working for Chinese/Indian companies because of the negative report about them generally. Your considered opinions and/or experiences would be appreciated.

Many thanks...

Bornsinner7:
Since you never indicated which of the Chinese company and if the offer was better off than your current job

I'd suggest you remain where you are.. you already stated that the pay is reasonable and you're good with the job..

If it is Huawei leave the bank and accept the offer quickly before it's too late.

The experience in Huawei (a multi-national telecom giant) is much different from the average Chinese owned one man business out there, don't let the terrible emotional stories out there deceive you. You can't compare the remuneration (the complete package) and the other perks with what the average Nigerian companies offer.

Unless you are a top executive in your bank and doing extremely well, don't let this opportunity pass you by

Salary is about 50% higher than my current take-home with added allowances and benefits. As for improvement, I'm not quite sure but I guess that's a personal decision to make. Pieces of training at the current job are limited to areas concerning financial institutions. Lastly, there would be no need to move address as both companies are in Lagos. Not quite sure about house/flat/car allowances.
Thanks

pokosimani:
Thanks for this..
The Bank work isn't really stressful. My decision to leave would be solely for career advancement and to have that experience on my resume.

In my honest opinion there are a lot of factors to put into consideration before I give you a professional opinion.
First , what is the nature of your employment with the bank you currently work with and what kind of employment are you being offered at the telecommunications company?
Secondly, what are you drawn to? Do you think you have a flair for that industry?
Lastly, what contains are you currently working under with the bank and what conditions will you be working with in the telecom organisation?

Once you can answer this I will give you proper directions.

Good luck

Oga You better stay put on your bank job ! . Kindly read below a brother story narrated to me yesterday and advise yourself about the decision you about to make...

Today is exactly 10years I resigned from my lucrative job that was paying me as much as N200k monthly as of then and ran to Lagos because of an advert I saw on Guardian Newspaper..
"An international/multinational company in Lagos is looking for suitably qualified science and arts graduates to market it's Great brands in Nigeria.. Salary is a minimum of N400k and a vehicle will be provided.. bla bla bla"
.
I applied through their email as provided..
.
Before 2 hours.. I was replied.. You have qualified for the interview and final stage and was given one month to resign and come for the final stage of the interview..
.
That time.. I had this lady Boss in my office that never liked me.. I came next morning and arrogantly told her, "Folake, I am Done with this your MENIAL job.. you can now have my position for all I care"..
.
I resigned.. Next morning, entered Ekenedirichukwu first bus to Lagos!
.
People of Gawd.. I am still shaking my head as I write this..
.
I reached Lagos safely..
Next morning I was at the address.. A "container" shop with a small room they called a warehouse attached, somewhere around Okokomaiko..
.
9:30am.. one haggard and hungry looking man in a lemon Green unbalanced coat popped out.. the idiot said he got A Great news for us.. He announced to us that all of us who have managed to come for this interview have automatically qualified.. I looked round. Over 2000 people qualified to work where?? In this caravan abi naa container!!
No interview.. no write this or that.. The Spirit to cry befell my Heart.. wahala be like okro soup.. e de draw!
.
The man said we should all clap for ourselves and sit down for lectures.. hmmmm.. people actually clapped.. Lagos children!.. Nothing scares them again.. people that clapped for Buhari and Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.. what can't they clap for..
Ndi ara juru naa Lagos..
.
My left mind smiled and sarcastically clapped too for my right mind like, "well done.. next Time always look before you leap"..
.
These guys started telling us of how we can get a basket and load it with their range of products.. Then a bus will be provided.. azzin that's the vehicle to be given as stated in the advert.. A Mega phone attached to the bus to tell the people about the range of products. While we run around and meet prospective customers.. any of the soap, cream or "ogwu anwu nta" you sell.. you get N5!..
.
The man sounded soooooo happy announcing to us that we are rewarded instantly.. and the Great reward is N5 that I nearly fainted..
Fada Lawd.. why do bad thing always happen to Good people?
.
Aaaahh.. ahhh..
Am I dreaming?? From salary of 200k a month.. I am coming to look for N5.. am I dreaming or what??... Kedu udiri akuko di ihe a
.
The man continued.. as if he was in my mind.. you can sell 400 products a day and that's you making 200k a day.. That's 400k in two days.. so when we said salary of 400k a month.. it's an understatement.. you can see that you are worth N5m in 25 working days..
They clapped again.. even gave him standing ovation..
Ndi ara juru naa Lagos, I swear..
.
God imagine your Child.. running on foot selling these unknown creams and rubbish and making 200k a day.. I go don run enter Boko haram camp without knowing.. person fit follow the bus run.. run.. run.. soteeeeeh you run mad and you don't have any idea that you have run out of your senses!!
.
That was when tears rolled down my left eye.. I caught it with my kerchief.. my stomach just did kpurururrurru!!.. e be like shit de catch me.. my legs have not started running.. I am already having running stomach!
.
In about a minute.. I just saw myself sobbing.. my heart was just too heavy.. I needed to cry small for my Destiny.. ihe nke a, wu niini sef??..
my nose was running too like a covid patient..
.
It was then it dawned on me to ask those around me their qualifications.. maybe I am at the wrong place.. maybe I read the wrong advert.. this must be for WAEC holders and bandits or miscreants!!!...
I asked the few around me.. This one said he has a HND in applied physics, the other OND in something laidat.. surprisingly, one said BSc Microbiology..
Epilepsy nearly do me, when the one by my side whispered to me that he has MBA marketing.. and he was listening to the junky man with rapt attention.. azzin he doesn't wanna loose this job!!
.
Imagine the kind of graduate jobs in Nigeria.. tufiakwa!!!
.
I just knelt down, took my phone and called Foluke.. "Biko..ejooor.. mbok.. I am sorry, that my position I said you should have, just keep am for me.. I am entering night bus now.. if you have another person there.. me and am go de share the salary like PDP vs APC sharing our loot and Natural resources..!!"
.
This was how a tusatusa company, carry sweet advert drag me come Lagos to add me to the list of ndi Ara juru naa Lagos!!!.. but I ran away !

I am sure, it is Huawei.

Working in a Chinese multinational telecom is different from working in a Chinese one man business in Nigeria.

Move to the Chinese telcom company, lot of experience awaits you not only that good salary, international training and lot of time for you( 9 am-6pm)
