    During my internship at Jabil, I learned the buyer role firsthand, strengthening my adaptability, communication, and teamwork skills in a fast-paced, multicultural workplace.
    The good thingsMy time at Jabil provided me with valuable professional growth in a dynamic and fast-paced global environment. I had the chance to perform buyer responsibilities, collaborate with diverse teams, and gain exposure to the semiconductor and board assembly industry. The supportive work culture, combined with opportunities to learn from experienced professionals, allowed me to strengthen my problem-solving skills, deepen my understanding of supply chain services, and appreciate the innovative approach Jabil brings to global manufacturing.
    The challengesOne of the challenges I faced at Jabil was adapting to the fast-paced, high-demand environment of the semiconductor and supply chain industry. Balancing accuracy with speed required strong attention to detail and time management. Additionally, working across multicultural teams and learning advanced procurement systems presented a steep learning curve. However, these challenges ultimately strengthened my problem-solving skills, improved my adaptability, and gave me valuable exposure to real-world global business operations.

    Good salary, bad work culture
    The good thingsThe only thing I like is the salary and benefits
    The challengesYou’ll find that the culture is quite toxic after working for some times. No work life balance, even weekend or night need to be ready to response for any issue arised. Poor teamwork, if you smart people will use you, if your performance just average, you will be pressure till you feel like wanna quit 24hours without notice. I’ve been patiently go thru few years of stressful culture. So good luck to the newcomers

    Poor working experience, too much stress and multitasking beyond limit.
    The good thingsSalary is competitive and some colleagues & managers are really nice and helpful.
    The challengesBut salary range compared to the working hours (24/7 on call) is not worth it at all. Too many negative vibes, stress all over the cross functional departments and too much multitasking until we lost track of the actual task. Also too many duplicate reports to different levels of management which I feel is wasting time.
