Lack of company direction and bad management

Network engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

As an engineer, you get actual hands on to learn and develop your technical skills. Colleagues are good. (but many has left)

Cons

1. CEO lacks of direction and is unpleasant. Lunched with him once and the way he treats the server is bad, this attitude is reflected onto the way he treats his staff. 2. Salary offered is below market rate. 3. High turnover rate due to bad culture / work-life balance 4. Micro-management 5. The lack of direction and action by the CEO makes people feel that he is just here to stay and draw his high salary till his time is up in nera

Bad Managment

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

Yes, retrenchment of staff happens often, like previous review said. Retrenchment will not happen at the management or lowest level, always at the executive level. But CEO will not replace the employee, so the work is offloaded to the teammates. Looks are very important here, as long as you are pretty you will not be fired even if you dont do your work properly.

Cons

CEO has no respect for subordinates; will shout at the employee in front of everyone. it is embarrassing for the employee. company always hire managers also, but will restrict hiring of employees at staff level. end up a lot of managers to do lip service but nobody to do hands on. managers hired are not professional as well; the executives are more knowledgable than the managers but the managers get all the credits when things go well.

A Lost Company with no soul

Business outlook

Pros

Relatively shielded from HQ politics in oversea office

Cons

Most senior management short sighted vision and push things they cannot execute. Failing for few years and blame staff for their own failure. HQ so many people left and continue leaving although market is no good. Keep pushing new products every month with lame strategy and want counties to follow. All senior management never work SI before and run the company like no limit. Totally gone.
