Company Change

Hi, I'm Working in an Oil & Gas Energy EPC Company as Buyer (1.5 Yrs Experience), currently 9.5LPA CTC. But the Catch is I don't like the Ambience of the Company. Many Corporate Politics, no Recognition. Should I try any other EPC Companies for Opportunities? If Yes, What companies can I try for In and Around Chennai (Purchasing / Procurement)? What Salary Jump can I expect? I have Worked in International Projects as well as Indian Projects.

Is the work-life balance important to you in your next job? That could also help narrow down which companies are a good fit..

9.5LPA with international experience, that's solid. If you move Iā€™d say a 10-15% hike would be realistic or maybe more depending on the role. Have you looked at companies like Jindal or BGR Energy?

If you enjoy the procurement field but not the work environment, switching to another EPC company sounds like a good move. Have you looked into L&T, Petrofac, or Technip Energies in Chennai?

While switching, focus on companies that offer structured career growth and recognition. A salary hike of 25-40% is reasonable, but also evaluate work culture through employee reviews before making a move.

Before making the switch, identify what exactly you want in your next role....growth opportunities, stability, or learning exposure. Talking to professionals already working in EPC companies like Fluor or Petrofac can help you get real insights.

Procurement professionals with international project exposure are in demand, so you should definitely explore better opportunities. Apart from EPC, have you considered procurement roles in the automotive or IT sectors in Chennai? They might offer better stability a... see more
