Hi firstly do you mean 8500 RM gross or net? Makes a difference. In cyberjaya usually a car is a must but again depends on location and your tolerance of third world bus services. And again living expectations? Career advancement - could be good for you long term but pays poorly short-term.

If you are 23 a good salary. If you have ten years experience in an important field then very bad salary.
