    It's not perfect but overall it's a great place to work
    The good thingsGreat opportunity to learn new technology and standards. Reasonable bonuses and good increment. Weekly and monthly activities/initiatives to get the staffs together.
    The challengesAs with most sizeable MNCs, office politics do exists but it's still under control. Some tough/difficult characters here and there but that is to be expected for a company that has been around for more than 25 years.

    I like the company culture
    The good thingsTravel opportunities to local and overseas customer sites, can learn a lot if you are ready to take up the challenge, sometimes will have multiple tasks being assigned but it all depends on your task management and time management. Some seniors can be rude but the majority are friendly. Heard they started practicing hybrid working arrangements.
    The challengesTraining is provided but most of the time have to self-learn and ask, don't expect training hands-in-hand. The support department can be hectic because not only pure support but you also have to do development when the customers have new change requests.

    The best place for you if you are looking to live with TERRIBLE life quality
    The good thingsIt's worth saying that you will work with a branch of friendly colleagues, leads that will listen, birthday leaves, opportunity to travel oversea and there are benefits like employees can claim for spectacles etc
    The challengesThere is no work-life balance here! As a support engineer here, there's some time that we have to stand by so clients are able to reach out to us while they are having an issue, and this is a terrible thing. Let's imagine that you have to standby for 24/7, and even if you are sleeping, driving, or watching a movie at the weekend when the client calls, then you have to work no matter how. Let's imagine mental health and physical health condition because of this, it's hard to have quality time with families and me time. The salary is average for a support engineer role, but the job scope is not only dealing with the client, also includes deployment, QA, documentation etc. The good thing is you will learn a lot, but the pay is too little for this high-pressure job scope.

    Be aware of office politics
    The good thingsCompetitive benefits and perks. Friendly co-worker.
    The challengesLeaders intentionally withholding important information. Being hash to the employees that leaders are not liking. Very old-schooled minded company and the worst is employees are encouraged to follow leaders mood and mindset only. As an employee you are unable to speak out your concern even when performance appraisal also being done via your leader only and not having a session with employees.

    Good place to start
    The good thingsThere are good coworkers, fairly friendly environment. Location is good if you are taking LRT. There are activities and good sports club that employees can join. That's about it.
    The challengesManagement should focus on what went wrong instead of ignoring, most of the time, people leave the company because of the people, especially their bosses. High number of absent employees almost everyday, it is obvious that employees are not happy coming in to work. Management need to have empathy and not just telling employees that business is business, no matter how the employees' condition. No work flexibility, very traditional company.

    Great working environment and managment
    The good things1) Everyone works as a family/ Colleagues are not selfish with knowledge and will make the effort to teach (Friendly, Respectful, Sociable, and Looks out for each other) 2) Being able to travel and being able to meet and communicate with customers 3) Employee benefits 4) Able to divert to other areas (Example: Start as a Programmer and move over to managing projects 5) Public Transport is within walking distance 6) Good working Benefits (Health/ Medical) 7) Training is provided for employees before tasks/ assignments are handed over to them 8) Management is well organized
    The challenges1) Employees are required to analyze and think about the task given to them + Cannot rely upon the Manager to fully provide the task requirements as employees are required to be independent and critical thinkers + Tasks are not straightforward. Employees must think of other possibilities and other functions. Should the employee take in what was given without thinking or considering other aspects, the outcome of the task will not be as how the manager desires it to be 2) Have the initiative to study the system and development tools related to the task provided in order to provide better task results

    A very good social working environment with a comfort working area.
    The good thingsA unique style in top management context. The office area convenience with the public transport. No awkward moment between old colleague and new colleague. Communication not limited only inside the office but also international because it Multinational Company and have connection in almost big country.
    The challengesNeed to be open minded and think out of the box. It not focus only how many sales to achieve but also the genuine of work to ensure customer received the best standard quality of product and service. To maintain the quality, staff might need to sacrifice the time for task.
