AI summary of recent reviews

Employees at BlueScope Steel appreciate the strong safety culture, with safety consistently prioritised across the organisation. The friendly and supportive colleagues create a collaborative environment, and employees value the learning opportunities and knowledge gained from skilled team members. Compensation and benefits are competitive, with above-market pay and good bonuses.

However, there are some potential challenges to consider. Communication from management could be enhanced, with some employees noting limited transparency about company strategy and direction. Workplace dynamics in certain departments may include blame culture and limited teamwork. Some roles experience demanding workloads with tight deadlines and on-call requirements. Career advancement opportunities may be limited, with occasional preference for external hires in managerial positions. Additionally, business processes involve considerable paperwork and approval requirements, and onboarding and training for new employees could be more structured.

Kota Kinabalu SabahLess than 1 year in the role, former employee

Sales Manager's competency is highly questionable, not taking responsibility, bad review from client

The good thingsI am thankful for the professional work guidance from certain employees where I had to frequently ask. Some of them are approachable, while some of them are working based off their moods.

The challengesIrrelevant feed backs from sales manager, baseless micro-management, seems biased in terms of handling issues. There are instance where irrelevant feed backs are given for example, when requested the reference of certain items, the sales manager replied with "it is based on my experience". Other issues include, my work was to organised the newspaper in the morning. When it comes to getting a review from the sales manager, it seems like the manager doesn't know, where they will constantly change the narratives. On a side note, this is an MNC, but the systems is old, using manual ways to conduct the jobs. When I gave a suggestion on how to improve, it was deemed tedious. Another challenges was, this issue was raised to the GM, but the problem was not handled fairly. It always seems like the GM is siding with the sales manager. Overall, this position has no career growth, I was given task outside from my Job Description.

Kota Kinabalu Sabah1 to 2 years in the role, former employee

The Sales Executive role has faced ongoing challenges over the past years, with more than three people leaving the position due to poor management. Despite having a team of capable and talented individuals, their growth and performance are held back by ineffective leadership, frequent managerial changes, micromanagement, and irrelevant feedback—particularly during the probation period. The lack of structure and clear direction continues to impact the department's overall effectiveness and sales outcomes.

The good thingsThe organization offers a supportive and collaborative environment with friendly colleagues, provides valuable knowledge, and ensures great exposure to diverse experiences and learning opportunities.

The challengesThe Sales Executive position is hindered by poor managerial engagement, with limited support and ineffective communication from leadership. New hires often receive irrelevant or unhelpful feedback, especially during the probation period, and there is a noticeable lack of guidance and structure.

Good company to gain experience for short-term only

The good thingsSafety of employees and all concerned are being prioritized. Good products being offered. Other than the above average salary and perks, there's nothing much to shout about.

The challengesNo transparency at all from management or leaders. No teamwork and basically you're left alone to dwell on what's coming. Be prepared for a mentally and physically challenged job and reports to different bosses. Company directions are always changing as high turnover on all levels at different departments. No work-life balance as deadlines are given with limited time and the amount of reporting e-paperwork are endless. Major upgrade and improvement of internal systems and processes are required to fit current workplace speed and efficiency. Trying to believe that product quality can be improved.
