    Good place for fresh graduates to gain basic experience, but not suitable for experienced IT professionals who wish to propose or implement improvements.
    The good thingsVery supportive colleagues who are always willing to help. The cafeteria serves good food with plenty of choices. Salary is paid on time without delays.
    The challengesFor the IT department, do not expect to handle major technical tasks such as configuring servers or networks, these are entirely managed by vendors. IT role is mostly coordination, with no administrator access to servers as vendors control everything. Limited freedom to implement improvement ideas, as most suggestions are rejected by management.

    Good place to start, but bad place to stay. Jump & grow!
    The good thingsSalary on time, got travel allowance, meal subsidy.
    The challengesToo many politics among top management. High ambitious but put wrong people to lead complex task, lead to low-grade people burdened. No personal KPI, no metrics to go higher grade. Cronyism people go higher grade faster.
