    Finance senior executive
    Nov 2016
    Kuala Lumpur5 to 6 years in the role, current employee
    Terrible place to be in
    The good thingsIt's right in the heart of the city so that's the great thing about working here. Whenever I feel stressed out, which is too often, I will sometimes go out to the malls nearby to de-stress. There are many eateries to choose from, many different cuisines so location-wise it's awesome.
    The challengesManagement will not allow internal transfer. There is no proper work allocation, no procedural & process manuals. No sharing of information between units/depts, too many redundant and/or duplication of work. Businesses offload their work to other dept/unit. Senior Mgmt is not transparent.

    Kuala Lumpur3 to 4 years in the role, former employee
    Great working environment with good governance
    The good thingsEmployer never failed to reward staff, regardless company financial status. Confirmation benefits, increasing of salary 2 to 3 percent upon confirmation and extensive and high annual limit for insurance coverage. Overall, the benefits are updated and diligently improve to adapt to current situation.
    The challengesThe training and development programs are less compare to other company,The department often conduct training just to fulfill the minimum requirement of training ratio for KPI purpose. The company also limits the approval frequency for public training. Every training will be conducted by its internal training unit, which sometimes but not necessarily , the internal trainers are less experience than the public trainers.

    A place to learn everything
    The good things- The steep learning curve from the bottom - colleagues more than willing to share knowledge - helpful hr for training and development of employees - supportive top management to groom future leaders
    The challenges- gets your hands dirty means u have to do everything and thats where you will learn and know how far you could go - a lot of things come in 1 time and one have to know how to prioritised tasks - fully utilise working hour and may need to learn work life balance
