    Kuala Lumpur3 to 4 years in the role, former employee
    Not recommended for anyone to approach this company
    The good thingsMNC benefits with more annual leaves offered than many other companies.
    The challengesTop management (especially expatriate) changed once every few years, none of them would seriously look to improve the company for long term due to they only here for short term. They mostly here to enjoy a moment in a foreign country for a couple of years before they leave. Not every staffs being treated equally, only those who surrounded by top management are being treated as "important member" to the company, while the rest of the staffs are all expendable. No career path, management has no plan to consider everyone's benefit and career progression, they only care about their own benefits. Most of the staffs stayed the same level of position for many years, while promotion only offered of the same group of senior members once every few years. No chance for others. Many things they are doing here are non compliance to Volkswagen standard, they only do thing based on what they believe is right, and they don't know and also don't care whether or not there's any Volkswagen standard or policy to follow. Even so, they are still proud of they do.

    A wonderful company to work for
    The good thingsI have learned so much from Working with Volkswagen Group Malaysia & their new counterpart, Volkswagen Passenger Cars Malaysia Sdn Bhd. Company benefits that were given to me were brilliant and I have been blessed to be able to have such a wonderful team of colleagues. Although the company has gone through a rather rocky few years, the experience I have gotten here is well worth it!
    The challengesDue to the bumpy road the company is facing, there are some challenges faced by myself and my team. However, we still try out very best to work through it because we are very passionate for the Brand and would like to see it succeed.
