    Kuala Lumpur City Centre Kuala Lumpur6 to 7 years in the role, current employee
    Proud & Personal A life-changing career foundation that helped me grow and achieve milestones.
    The good thingsI enjoyed working with a truly multinational crew onboard, where everyone could collaborate and support each other despite our different backgrounds. The accommodation, food, and overall welfare provided were first-class, creating a comfortable and motivating work environment. MISC also played a major role in shaping my career right after graduation — the experience, exposure, and opportunities I received allowed me to grow rapidly. I’m proud to say that within just six years, I’ve been able to build a strong career foundation and achieve personal milestones such as purchasing properties and establishing a stable life.
    The challengesOne area for improvement is the enhancement of benefits and allowances to better reflect the demanding nature of offshore work. Additionally, expanding the marine benefit medical card to include single's parents would create a more inclusive and supportive benefits package for employees with different family responsibilities.

    Terrible GLC Company. Far from my expectation!
    The good thingsMany Benefits i.e Housing loan subsidy, car loan, pregnancy coverage etc
    The challengesTerrible. Too much politic and nonsense company culture that has to be stopped! Otherwise many people will come and go. Spoke to HR but HR doesn't helping at all. Low salary for local employees but high salary for expatriate. Too much workload but never value their employees.

    Interesting
    The good thingsI have started with this company since the academy. It was a good experience working with the company as I learned many skills and things what should a seaman would have to know. Overall, it was a good company with good men and so far one of the best company to start your carrier as a seafarer
    The challengesThe salary was not good enough compared to the other company who running the same business. The HR people were good but there are some points where the HR need to improve such as crew management. Other than this, for me, it was a great opportunity to work for this company.
