    The good thingsLearn many things as you need to work independent, good exposure in accounts / finance, have birthday leave, team building, free lunch (3x per month)
    The challengesLack supportive from ur direct superior. Need to work independently, if u make mistakes, they will put a blame on you instead of try to help / suggest you to solve the issue. Hard to apply leave eventho u applied earlier. More to individualisms than work in team. Quite stressful and need to stayback to finish ur task eventho u had manage ur time well. No one will hear ur suggestions

    A company you wish you hadn't joined
    The good things1. Free parking. 2. Affordable lunch packed 3. Free vegetarian lunch
    The challenges1. Poor management 2. Poor human resource department with poor SOP especially during pandemic, locked down and positive cases in the office. (it's an essential business so have risk your life to come to office and work cause they don't trust working from home). 3. Poor position ranking and poor benefit for lower position especially fresh grads and junior position. (don't have to consider about higher position, it's a family business) 4. Poor leadership from leaders and head of departments. Basically all departments lead by the family members. 5. Poor training provided 6. Everything is a mess with no proper procedure, everyone has piles of tasks on hand. 7. Long working hours 8. Not full PH enjoyed 9. Super high turn over rate 10. They can really talk the talk but can't work the work.
