    Good environment but low pay rate
    The good thingsThey teach you on how things done. Management open to negotiation. Recently flexible working hours also introduced.
    The challengesPosition really limited and hard to even land an interview. They does not apply or offer probation period for newly/ part time worker. Also low pay rate because they barely pay the minimum wages without any incentive except EPF.
