    Centre Coordinator

    Bintulu Sarawak5 to 6 years in the role, former employee
    I love my job a lot, but I don't like the toxic environment. Sending your kids here is okay, but working here is not okay at all.
    The good thingsSupportive colleagues, parents, and students. I like my job a lot and have learnt a lot of things; most of the time I do self-study and learn new things by myself.
    The challengesUnderpay with a lot of jobs from the management. A lot of favouritism is going on, which only benefits those close to the management. No staff welfare at all, no bonus, no incentive (if do, it is based on favouritism), 9 days max AL for senior staff (AL, MC, EL all deducted from this 9 days).

    NEED TO IMPROVE TREMENDOUSLY
    The good thingsThe opportunities of venturing in various projects from multimedia development, interesting events, corporate social responsibilities - the company is not afraid to try something new.
    The challenges- - Employee may had to manage many responsibilities and they have very low tolerance or empathy towards you. - Very unlikely to get a raise even after massive efforts - Inexperienced directors who had no sufficient knowledge (or experiences) in sectors they are managing which lead to many problematic issues

    Job experience
    The good thingsThe employer managed to hire some experience personnel to work on the job and provide insightful views and constructive contribution to support the business function. Certain personnel do work closely together to achieve to improve working condition and smooth processes with company.
    The challengesRetention of good staff prove to be a challenge as the benefits and compensation are not attractive enough. Certain personnel are more prone to office politics and pinpointing others' mistakes rather than resolving the issues collectively. Recruitment process was not appropriate when candidate was not screened for background check and no training was provided to improve staff skills.
