UM said:
"I once argued with someone in a comment section. I know many agencies in Nigeria that pays ₦5M monthly for entry-level."
Axiom reacted:
"Somehow, this information is just to enlighten us that some people are enjoying okay but quite useless because we know how keen and competitive it is to get into somewhere like that. I won't be delusional enough to think I'd stand out. So, goodluck to dem employees."
Stephen Uzoma said:
"Is the recent one? Doesn’t look as juicy as been portrayed sha, but extra decent for entry level role. I think seplat is significantly higher than this."
King Ikedichukwu reacted:
"And I never hear say them open job vacancies oooo even when I went there for job hunting the security man told me I can only get into the premises by connection, talk more of getting any job."
Odogwu added:
"Oil workers are disproportionately well paid in Nigeria. I think this is inappropriate. Everybody should be fairly paid. Why should a entry level oil and gas engineer earn more than a consultant surgeon or a pilot. I don’t think it happens anywhere in the world."
