What’s it like working at Oriental Holdings Berhad?

AI summary of recent reviews

Employees at Oriental Holdings Berhad appreciated the opportunities to travel globally and the great benefits offered, including reasonable pay and packages for expatriates. They gained valuable exposure to different departments and business segments, even without prior experience, and there were good opportunities for career advancement.

However, some potential challenges included a highly competitive environment, particularly for traders, high workloads towards the end of each month, and office politics. There was a lack of formal training, with employees expected to learn on the job. Employees also faced challenges in convincing headquarters about the company's status, as headquarters tended to trust Japanese management more. Additionally, certain business segments had tight reporting deadlines to manage.

Working as an Expatriate

The good thingsReasonable pay and package to expatriate, great oversea exposure. Worked as expatriate was very challenging where you have to tolerance with local and headquarter management. Good exposure to all departments even though without experience. Freedom in decision making when there's no trouble but wholly responsible on the decision made.

The challengesNo training provided, learn from on hand job. Organization fundamental was not strong enough to sustain the challenging world, therefore oversea investment were closed or joint venture then transferred the management to Japanese who is not willing to listen to us. Overcome our stress and convince the headquarter on the company status because they trust Japanese more than us.
