Worst Place I’ve ever been to

Pros

Opportunities to work with big brands due to the company’s connection and relationship

Cons

1. Low compensation - Despite that, the superior constantly bring up to remind you how much you’re cost and how much value you should bring to the team 2. Disrespect - Daily demeaning & insulting comments and treat one like you’re mentally challenged or just plain stupid. Loud random yelling at you in the open office with no context, giving wrong impressions to the colleagues. 3. Micro Manage - Does his daily patrols every 30min and ask million questions on every single thing you do or going to do or why you do this and not that, anything not up to his expected answers = more yelling & insults 4. Slave driving - 9am to 10pm is a norm in the office and cutting lunch short for naps, unrealistic expectations in terms of timeline and deliverables 5. Favoritism - Selective few gets papa’s good side, you’ll be surprised by how well he actually can treat somebody 6. Irrational Expectation - As long as you’re the selected victim, nothing you do is a good thing in the eyes of the superior 7. Culture - Unfortunately, this is the practice in the company and the superior learned this from his superior 8. Scapegoat - Everything is blamed on the person who left and untrue rumors are spread to make the superior look good and nice, leaving him seem like a victim of a scam but he’s the one scamming people 9. High turnover - The turnover rate there is very very high, and i am not the only one who feels this way. Many has shared their concerns and verbalized their unhappiness but non was addressed and they were blamed for whatever reasons he can think of. 10. Discouraging - Humiliating and making the interns cry are also a very common scene I can list another 100 cons but i think you get the gist of this place. Whatever negativity you hear from friends or ex employees, most of the time they are 120% real. So do re-consider and join at your own risk.

Pros

You will appreciate ex bosses too

Cons

If you do a bit of review background research on this company, you MAY find out there are a lot of unfavorable reviews. Let me tell you, those reviews are true to the core. Trust your instinct. Those whom managed to stay ‘long’ in the company mainly happened because of their personal issue - family commitment, low education, too comfortable in this hole. 1. Mismatch of job scope VS job title - You MAY be required to ‘support’ personal errands such as booking of restaurants, switching on lights. 2. Colleagues and environment - 80% of the staff there have serious attitude problem. Minor incident consists of random vulgarities flying around the office where larger incidents will include banging of table, throwing stuff, shouting and raising of voices for something that is not your fault. 3. Work training - You MAY be expected to know things that you have never been taught. Senior staff will be able to WFH, which resulting in them throwing all the office tasks to you when you are extremely new. Senior staff MAY also use their ‘personal’ reason/commitment as an excuse to demand for countless WFH arrangement, if you do not clear their work when they were away, they will bang the table and question as if you owe them something. 4. Work arrangement - Senior staff MAY have it easy by managing lesser teams and new comer will be expected to do A LOT MORE. They will not even bother to introduce you to the teams, so good luck in treasure hunting to look for the PIC for the random piece of paper thrown on your table. 5. Work life balance - Your phone will be flooded with countless calls and messages, demanding you on to run errands even after working hours. They also hate to communicate via emails for some reasons, it will be challenging for you to gather pieces and bits of information from whatsapp messages, to call and verbal communication. IT IS THIS MESSY. 6. Outdated workflow - They are still using hard copy for all of their workflow. Your table will be flooded with countless paper for you to ‘process’ simple things like claims, leave application, petty cash. Join only if you want to be as outdated. 7. No standards - There will be no training given, and you will be left alone in the office where Senior staff is on MCs, leave, WFH. Yet, you will get insulted when you try to figure things out on your own. Often, you don’t know what you have done wrong, yet you are made to be wrong. 8. PTSD - You will probably need a huge amount of time to recover from all these trauma. DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR, DO NOT JOIN. Overall: Super high turnover rate, don’t bother remembering names. This is really the worst place to be. Please think twice, don’t waste your time. There are so many negative reviews for a reason. A pleasant working environment wouldn’t ’push’ its staff to type out a negative composition upon leaving. Senior staff MAY probably ‘train’ a new comer to have the new comer leaving after a couple of weeks and the same cycle repeat. We are all human and have dignity, treat each other with respect. Karma is on the way, good luck

Good experience, horrible place to be

Pros

Plenty of experience to gain, good exposure, good incentives (occasionally)

Cons

Directors and senior management definitely need to gain more skill, to have broad knowledge, willingness to see individuals as a person and appreciate each other effort. The company is taking advantage of foreigners, by hiring non-resident foreigner and making them work long hours with no benefit. Depending on who’s your manager, you might be expected to work on weekends, public holiday, without compensation. Regardless your personal and/or health condition. Favoritism Teamwork can be good, depending on who is in your team. They can be somehow racist.
