Review for EP Engineering Sdn BhdDuring my time at this company, I experienced a work culture that is resistant to change and new ideas. The management strongly prefers to stick to traditional ways of working, and any attempt to suggest improvements or modern practices was generally discouraged—or even met with frustration. There is little to no encouragement for innovation or personal growth.
The HR department was also not supportive. There were no structured training or development opportunities, and they rarely engaged with staff on a personal or professional level. One key issue was the complete absence of performance evaluations or one-on-one check-ins. Without these, there was no clear path for career progression or feedback for improvement, which led to a lack of motivation among employees.
Proper documentation and clear processes were lacking as well. Much of the work was handled without black-and-white policies, leading to confusion and inconsistency.
The company culture placed more value on loyalty and seniority than actual performance. Even if you delivered results and contributed significantly, recognition and opportunities tended to go only to long-time or "loyal" staff.
On a practical level, staff well-being did not seem to be a concern. For example, the office lift was never functional from the time I joined, and despite multiple issues being raised, nothing was done to resolve it—reflecting a lack of care from upper management.
In summary, the company would benefit greatly from adopting a more progressive mindset, implementing proper HR practices, and showing more genuine concern for the growth and well-being of its employees.
