What’s it like working at Schott Glass (M) Sdn Bhd?

AI summary of recent reviews

Schott Glass offers a positive work environment characterised by supportive colleagues, comprehensive benefits, and excellent learning opportunities through international exposure. The management style is notably hands-off while maintaining focus on employee welfare and safety, and the company provides good facilities including an affordable canteen and well-maintained premises.

However, employees note some areas for improvement, including the need to modernise manual systems and processes to enhance efficiency. New employees may face a steep learning curve with limited formal training structure, requiring significant self-initiative for development. Additionally, there are some challenges around change management, particularly when implementing new technologies and processes.

Good place to work but slow career growth.

The good thingsMany employee benefits. Most coworkers is very supportive of each other. Management is always concern on worker welfare.

The challengesManagement overemphasis on cost savings rather than waste reduction or process optimization. Difficult to get things approved and executed. Risk aversion is very high.
