    Tapah Perak4 to 5 years in the role, former employee
    Good for gaining experience, but not ideal for long-term career growth.
    The good thingsThe company offers good remuneration and comprehensive benefits.
    The challengesYour colleagues may report mistakes rather than guide, and prefer others get suspended especially energy team. Zero tolerance may cause you suspended for giving wrong instructions, bypassing procedures (intentionally/not), safety, weak supervision, etc. Need entertain Whatapp 24hrs. Many adhoc job.

    Poor and unlogical planning and unaware of Malaysia system
    The good thingsBenefits are awesome. The rest all all rubbish, simple as that. If you wants to earn money, join Lhoist. If you wants to work, better find somewhere else.
    The challengesPoor understanding among management about system. No support from them but work has to accomplish by date line. No common sense.
