There are opportunities to enhance management practices, particularly in terms of employee feedback and strategic direction. Some employees also note that office facilities could benefit from upgrades and parking improvements.

    worst company in perai
    The good thingsnothing good to be honest
    The challengesworst company in penang. waiting to bankrupt only. management really poor in making decision, dont want to listen below level worker's opinion. no firm vision to grow, no bonus, no increment for the past 5 years. dont waste your time come here. beware of all 'positive' review given by HR on the website, it all just to attract people come only, but the truth is only the employee know, even they also knew.
