    I have learned alot about corporate world with Lafargeholcim
    The good thingsThe culture of the company. It is managed professionally and less hierarchical. Bosses are approachable and the benefits are promising. Integrity line is one of the best implementation as the company is opened to hear out employees concerns in order for the business to operate efficiently.
    The challengesThe company could have improved in taking quick action whenever there are signs that the direction is slightly out of it's track. With that, the repercussions would have been detected earlier and the damage is fix at the initial stage.

    Temporary Sales Coordinator
    The good thingsIt is a good company where they have many different departments and industry. The chance to grow is very high. The company takes care their staff very well where they have a lots of activities out of office time.

    Project Controller

    5 to 6 years in the role, former employee
    Project Controller
    The good thingsInternational expatriate team with egalitarian Swiss culture. Leadership development course at IMD Switzerland. Great stretched assignment with rapid promotion if proved capable. Global standard, local management. Strategic alignment ensures great employee engagement. Generous benefits include multi million USD medical insurance, no limit on hotel and dining bill, group wide international siminar.
    The challengesWork life balance could be hard. Frequent travel across the region is tiring. Managing the largest project worldwide for a Fortune Global 500 company is never going to be easy or for the faint hearted. Steep learning curve when putting into new role mitigated by great supportive culture. Cultural difference makes active listening important and cross culture respect critical. Multilingual is asset.
