A company moving in a positive direction with stronger cultural integration and leadership.
The good thingsI have seen meaningful improvements in the company’s leadership direction. Previously, there were challenges in communication and cultural alignment. However, with the new management team in place, the environment has become much more open, supportive, and engaging.
The current leaders show strong willingness to listen, collaborate, and integrate local culture into operations. This positive change creates better teamwork and brings more confidence to local employees.
It would not be fair to judge the company based on past management. With the ongoing improvements, I believe the company is moving in a good direction and will continue to strengthen its reputation in Malaysia.
The challengesAt the same time, there are still ongoing challenges. The transition from a traditionally China-centric work culture to a more diverse and inclusive environment requires time and continuous effort. Some individuals may still be adjusting to the new leadership direction, and communication barriers can occasionally create misunderstandings. There is also a need to further strengthen awareness of local laws and regulations so that everyone operates with the same understanding and respect.

Good experience work place to whom wish to obtain experience work with PRC
The good thingshigher paid than market
The challengesI think the values and culture in this company are questionable, there was a lot of politics and I felt people were being dishonest. This company is a bad employer. They offer no support or development. It feels like you are simply a worker drone to them.”

Chaotic and bad management ever
The good thingsI suggest dont apply job with this company
The challengesWhen problem occurs ask for solutions, when solutions given, doesn't listen to the advice. Expect the business strategy that has been implemented in other countries can be 100% implemented in Malaysia. Doesn't think of localisation issues.
