    Pulau Indah Selangor2 to 3 years in the role, former employee
    Highly toxic work environment and culture.
    The good thingsGood benefit and good bonus. Nothing else.
    The challengesAlthough the company is supposedly well-established and publicly listed, the way it is managed is worse than some SMEs I have worked with before. Cronyism is rampant, and promotions or rewards are based on how well employees please top management rather than on merit. Office politics are excessive, and the company still refuses to adopt modern systems, continuing to rely heavily on manual processes for almost everything.

    Very Mainland Chinese Culture for new management join after 2017
    The good thingsGood office and comfortable although the air con is very cold. If you like winter weather all year round is perfect!
    The challengesOverall team is very supportive and hard working but some of management can be very two faced and vicious. I understood that there was a lot of politics within the leadership and this stops the good workers from growing within the company. If you are looking for a short term job or stepping stone is ok but long term very challenging due to the culture and politics.

    An honest experience from 2018 till now
    The good thingsIt was a fun & vibrant company. Because it was a start-up at Pulau Indah, the company was continually recruiting people in.
    The challengesBut everything changed, there was not enough experience of management skills to support the company's efficiency. And now, most of the talent of staff has resign and moved on.

    Give yourselves a chance. Don't ever join this company. Your time and experience are better off somewhere else.
    The good thingsIf you stay long enough and you are "Yes Man", then you able to get promotion or 2.5 months bonus. Otherwise, nothing good. Pls remember culture at here is "work smart rather than work hard".
    The challengesNo chance of progression. management refused to change. There are major stumbling blocks. There's no right or wrong. The only right is when the DCEO says so. Everyone must be yes man. Meetings are on average 2-3 hours long with no agenda, no objective, no conclusion. Forever harping on methodologies used in past glories.

    Stressful environment for HR Management
    The good thingsColleagues are good and friendly for union staff., very little peer level politics, mostly because the management is allowed us to accept hamper, angpow or meal from supplier/vendor, That staff are enjoying these kind of benefit.
    The challengesPoor management for HR & admin, very often long and pointless meetings run by management. Frequent changes in direction initiated by the whims of management. Little to no established SOPs, a joke for a company that likes to harp on their years of experience in the industry.
