    Make it or break it, this is a challenge
    The good thingsIf you are a freshie, good exposure to executive world, chances to work closely with renowned scientists in Malaysia, salary not affected by pandemic, perks are mediocre, colleagues are awesome, surviving there means you are competent to excel anywhere!
    The challengesThe management is bad in appreciating staff, even you are senior, they let you go coz many can replace you, SOP is not in place (can change overnight), stress level is as high as Everest, immediate boss either not competent or too demanding to perfection. Like a rice cooker, either you perfectly cooked, or you overcooked then go. Be prepared mentally!
