Pros

- Great place to build your skills, experience, and mental resilience (definitely!) - Colleagues are mostly eager to collaborate and learn from one another - More than 16 days of AL

Cons

Where do I begin? The company might look pretty on the outside, but messy and problematic on the inside. Management doesn't care about the team's individual career growth at all, as long as you bring in revenue. That is all they want. When I say they don't care, I mean no increments/promotions, even if you've worked tirelessly just to prove to them that your team is as important as the rest too. They are blindsided. Secondly, they don't know how to value talent, especially those who work hard and have stayed with the company during the bad times. It's no surprise to me the turnover rate is unusually high this year. Thirdly, when you hire someone who doesn't know much about what the team is doing and have no idea how to provide the support we need, why do we even need such a leader? Long story short, It's tragic that this company had such good potential but it's all gone to waste when they kept on changing our KPIs and the company's direction every few weeks. How do you expect employees to stay focused and motivated when you yourselves do not know what you're trying to achieve. When we question the management's decisions, they say we're not embracing growth and innovating. But when we follow through with all their ridiculous changes within the company and it doesn't work out (as anticipated, duh), we are the first ones to get blamed. If you still don't realise the problem by now, all there is left to say is, good luck.

Pros

1. Good people across different divisions. You can mix around and create good friends inter-departmentally. 2. Conducts activities to foster close relationship amongst employees (game nights, sports day) quite frequently. 3. Good environment to expose yourself into the recruitment/sales industry from a small company pov.

Cons

1. Stunted growth. Higher ups play favouritism which limits opportunity to grow and might be given unreliable/non-responsive clients and then blamed for the lack of work from said clients. 2. Rollover in commission system which means no guarantee in commissions even when sales are constant monthly. 3. Clients that are partnered up with oftentimes rude, racist and retract offers, however blame is still imparted onto the "lack of skills" in some consultants (favouritism again). 4. Racist managers from overseas who refuses to learn and speak Bahasa Malaysia and assumes people are bad mouthing when speaking in Bahasa Malaysia. 5. Managers who are not able to keep information private and shares it out immediately without seeking consent from their subordinate. Said managers also openly talk bad about their subordinates in mandarin to others. 6. Managers and subordinate engaging in intimate relationships which resulted in unfair promotions and bonuses.
