Pros

A monthly salary and minimum benefits are something I can thnk of. Nothing else.

Cons

I joined the company in 2023, but a total of about 27 people (according to a year-end company meeting) were hired in the same year. This company had about 50-something employees, so you can tell how high the turnover was. The solar industry is complex and is gaining traction worldwide. However, Solar Media did not offer adequate training to equip employees with knowledge about the industry. Instead, the CEO just asked the employees to read the news online. Although employees should take the initiative to self-learn (no one would disagree with that), the employer is expected to offer training and materials to employees so that they can learn and grow. Unfortunately, it's just the employees' fault for not knowing the industry well. It's understandable that some employees struggled and decided to leave in just a few months of time. From an employee perspective, aside from the salary, they could hardly learn/take from this company. I also understand there are many people who work mainly, if not only, for the pay slip. However, there are also many companies that expect their employees to hit the ground running. The job market always has capable candidates, but Solar Media needs to significantly increase the remuneration package in order to attract them. If this company does not want to pay, it can hire people with little experience and fire them later if they cannot help its business. That's what Solar Media has been doing.
