    Have to prove your worth to advance forward in your career but no office politics here and good working environment.
    The good thingsThe management is okay, very transparent.
    The challengesIncome for lower executives is not a pull factor. But if the noobies just endure, show that they are worth it and is worth something, there's reasonable reward.

    The good thingsThe working environment, people that looking to settle down and work fro a long time, this is the place where you can slowly grow together with company
    The challengesSince it was already organized, for young and knowledge hungry like me are preferred to explore more, the challenges will be you have to work long hours travelling by land transportation due to my nature of works but less work done, and the process of acquiring new knowledge is slower than I expected.

    A Company With Great Feel Good Factor
    The good thingsThe company is actually stable and well managed. They are punctual paymasters and although they are basically a business oriented, the style of management is laid back and many employees are given room to grow and do their work without any sort of attempt at micro management from superiors. There is very minimal office politics and work environment is very good with positive employee interactions.
    The challengesFor most employees, the salary scale is at the low end of the scale. Many other companies of similar business operations are able to offer extremely better pay if not higher allowances. At times, the mindset of cost effectiveness is instilled into employees whereby employees are encouraged to work a little extra.
