    World's Top Bank with Child Play Tech Department
    The good thingsRelatively high starting salary, superb number of annual paid leaves, seasonal workload, and extra employer-EPF contribution, flexible working arrangement, shuttle bus services between office and selected LRT stations.
    The challengesSubpar management run by mediocre people, promote formalism at best, always speak louder than action. No room for career progression, no salary increment regardless company performance. All projects are managed like a child play, every now and then there are meetings to condemn engineers of their degrading project quality, no real action or solution ever been taken. Then they will fund new projects to improve quality, which of course are destined to fail miserably because no discipline and standards were being established and followed. The whole tech department is a good laughing material, I don't recommend for fresh hires.
