    Puchong Selangor1 to 2 years in the role, former employee
    This company may only suit those seeking steady pay, short-term experience, or without life goals.
    The good thingsPros: Salary is generally paid on time.
    The challengesBasic pay is low with weak commission; probation further reduces take-home pay. Salary increments are minimal, making long-term financial growth unrewarding. Probation period is very long (6 months) and exploitative: no leave or MC, unclear performance evaluation, and confirmation depends more on time up rather than observation or merit. Management is family-owned, decision-making is slow and often conflicting, and policies feel opaque and biased toward insiders. Employees are frequently expected to handle tasks beyond their role without recognition. Long working hours Sales staff have little autonomy: schedules are set by management, administrative tasks must be completed in the office (e.g., clock-out procedures), and free time is limited. The structure resembles a manufacturer more than a flexible sales environment. Confirmation process is arbitrary, and notice period favors the company. High turnover; employees often feel undervalued, and effort rarely matches reward.

    space to grow and learn
    The good thingsIf you are looking for a space to learn or even go beyond your limits then this place could be considered. It is a trading company so it is mostly sales oriented. The company is build on strong technical expertise and stable financial background. Through my 9 years experience the team has never been stingy in teaching and guiding an individual. Salary pay out is never late, management is kind and considerate in compensation but they are experience enough not to be manipulated. If one is determine enough and have good work ethic they will surely be appreciated.
    The challengesEvery company has its challenges, sales target is one of them, but it is nothing you did not expect already.
