    Work Based Learning (WBL)
    Sep 2025
    Shah Alam Selangor1 to 2 years in the role, former employee
    I had extensive exposure to business operations during my internship at TGBS, which helped me hone my professional talents and acquire useful skills in a controlled corporate setting.
    The good thingsThe learning curve at TGBS, from comprehending internal processes to getting practical experience with systems and procedures, has been what I've loved the most. Building my talents was made simple by the friendly culture and mentors' advice.
    The challengesEnhanced communication across departments. Delays and misunderstandings may be avoided with a more transparent update and feedback mechanism. Improved electronic instruments. Certain systems might be upgraded or optimized to increase productivity and decrease repetitive chores. Additional feedback sessions. Employees would feel more encouraged and led if managers and mentors checked in with them on a regular basis.

    Such a good experience
    The good thingsI get to explore things that are impossible for me, such as how I can handle customers directly under small supervision. My immediate manager and my team members are the most supportive and cooperative people I have ever seen. They are always there for me and the other team. I'm grateful for having these people around me for a year.
    The challengesI told you that wherever you go, there must be challenges. For me, my challenge is that I have to handle customers directly because, as you know, humans have their own behavior, but I did it. I'm proud of myself.

    Good place to experience working in Malaysia's corporate life
    The good thingsIt is a good place to experience working in Malaysia's corporate life. It will expose you on how to deal with management, internal and external customers. The best thing about the company is the benefits.
    The challengesThere is not much career development programme and career progression is slow. It is no possible to negotiate your salary despite how well you perform. The company culture could be improved.

    9 to 10 years in the role, former employee
    I learned a lot about different management styles and strategies for maintaining cooperation in a large group
    The good thingsI enjoyed the people I worked with. It was a friendly and fun atmosphere, and I actually enjoyed going to work each morning. I felt that the leadership team was great too. The company offered me a great opportunity for a good entry-level position—one that I’ll always be grateful for. While I did enjoy working there and appreciate the skills I developed. My capabilities are more recognized. They knew all of their employees on a first name basis and tried to make those personal connections. I also enjoyed the fact that the office tried to do community outreach with local organizations
    The challengesOne of my big challenges will be adjusting to the new workflow during pandemic of lockdown.

    Lower than average salary with slow career advancement
    The good thingsTNB's welfare and benefits are tremendous and family-oriented if you are offered a permanent job opportunity. Panel medical institutions and virtually no capping for you and your family.
    The challengesThe annual salary increment more or less equals inflation value. Salary is below market rate. Promotion is limited; expect five years in a role before you are promoted to the next band (senior exec, so to speak). Then, another five years to reach a managerial position.
